Edutainment Nite Publishing is dedicated to supporting marginalized and underrepresented writers and people who are functional illiterates because everyone has a story to tell. We do not publish, nor do we tolerate racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism of any sort. Yet we are mindful that sometimes writers write some aspects of the human condition blindly and without insider knowledge thus author intent is considered when evaluating manuscripts.

Edutainment Nite Publishing is seeking your short stories whether they are fiction, micro-fiction or nonfiction for our inaugural Short Stories of Alaska of 2027 Anthology. We’re interested in the voices and styles of marginalized and underrepresented writers including people who have never published a story yet hold aspirations of becoming a published author. Why? Because the literary landscape in Alaska must be terra-transformed from a surface heavily reliant on privilege, education and prestige into one of emergence, subversive writers with fresh voices for the 21st century and beyond. Okay that’s a bit dogmatic and dramatic but you get the point. It’s time for the margins to move to the center.

Short Stories Only. Fiction, Flash Fiction, Nonfiction, Any Genre.

We are looking for creativity beyond the same ole same romance, politics, religious themes.
