Danse Macabre

is committed to expanding the creative landscape of the non-academic literary web.

Our central editorial criteria is the overall imaginative effort you deploy to transcend prevailing orthodoxies.

If buona coloratura lettura is your game,

we seek:

- All forms of poetry, including translations

- All manner of fiction, incl. novel excerpts

- Travel narratives, humour, and creative non-fiction

- Book & music reviews (query your proposed subject)

- Art & photography from emergent artists

(send .jpegs of at least 3 pieces w/query; we heart large portfolios)

Though we may not be able to offer you detailed comments on your submissions,

we do promise to read everything you send with care and consideration.

Our response time is rarely over a month.

bene facere

Our goal is to keep Danse Macabre free to the public, but it does cost both time and money to develop our content & operate on a monthly basis. Our modest admin team works part-time solely on this site, programming new issues and ensuring that all the publication listings are as up-to-date as humanly possible. If we can't make ends meet and have DM come close to sustaining itself, then some features of the site might have to be made available on a subscription basis. We don't want that, and neither do you. So, please, contribute if you can. Even a small amount will help!

How to Contribute

The button below will take you to PayPal, where you can choose your contribution amount and pay securely. Through PayPal, we can accept credit cards, e-checks, international payments, etc. A PayPal account is not required, except for recurring contributions. NB: PayPal charges us a minimum of 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. Please do not send PayPal contributions of less than one dollar.
