Attention! Starting in Issue 4 Peasant Magazine will be paying a small stipend to contributors, a sum of $0.01 for every 10 words. Thus a 6,000 word short story will pay $6 USD. We purchase both reprint rights and first world-wide publication rights. You should be aware that if your story is published by Peasant Magazine you will no longer be able to sell first publication rights to another publisher. So if you want to get paid more we recommend publishing elsewhere and then you can always submit to Peasant Magazine later for reprinting after you've already been paid by a different publisher.
ARCANE TOMESArcane Tomes / ArcaneTomes.org is an indie fantasy bookstore (of sorts) sponsored by Peasant Magazine and serves to promote Indie Fantasy Books, and also serves to promote Peasant Magazine itself. Joining Arcane Tomes is free and the only requirement is that authors must have self-published at least one book. Literary magazines/journals that publish fantasy stories by indie authors are also acceptable.

ABOUT PEASANT MAGAZINEPeasant Magazine is a fantasy and historical fiction literary magazine produced by fantasy author Charles Moffat with the help of volunteers. The magazine is currently available in both PDF and 8.5 x 11 print formats, and we are hoping to introduce an audiobook version in the future too. Note: Anyone who wishes to contribute by helping to create audiobooks is welcome to volunteer. We are hoping to make the magazine more accessible to anyone with poor vision by creating an audiobook version. For printing purposes we have opted for Amazon's print-on-demand because it is reasonably priced, doesn't require that we print thousands of copies, we can update the file if need be, and there's zero upfront cost. Oh and potentially free shipping. Plus the option of Expanded Distribution of the magazine on other websites that are partnered with or owned by Amazon. We will accept any well-written fantasy, historical fantasy, or historical fiction story that is between 1,000 and 12,000 words that fits within our criteria. Our pay rate is $0.01 for every 10 words, which is very low, but we expect to increase the amount over time as our readership grows. We prefer stories that are set in a medieval, ancient, or prehistoric setting. Any pre-industrial setting (pre-1750) will do. Stories set after 1750 will be automatically rejected. We do not accept fan fiction, poetry or 'spicy' adult fiction. Submissions must be your original work and either family friendly or PG (limit of one F-bomb per story). We expect all submissions to be polished before submission. This doesn't mean that it has be perfectly edited, but you should at least make an effort to fix any issues with the manuscript before submission. If a submission is rife with spelling or grammar mistakes, or is difficult to understand, then it will lead to an automatic rejection. We also accept art submissions, both for the cover art and for greyscale interior illustrations. If chosen we pay artists $5 for cover artwork and $1 per interior illustration. We recommend viewing examples of past interior illustrations in Issues 2 and 3 to get a better idea of what we are looking for. See also...
