About

Speculatively Queer is a Washington-based small press publishing speculative stories about queer hope, joy, love, affirmation, and community. We aim to uplift our readers as well as uplift our creative communities by providing fulfilling opportunities to contribute to our projects at professional rates. We strive to be as inclusive and accessible as possible, and we appreciate any suggestions for improvement. You can connect with us on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.

Retailers and libraries can order our titles through Ingram worldwide. We provide free ebooks on request to book reviewers and awards voters. Please reach out via our contact page and let us know which book/s you’re interested in and which file format/s you prefer (EPUB, MOBI, or PDF).

If you are from an organization serving marginalized communities that is in need of physical book donations, please get in touch with a US shipping address and the number of copies of each title you’d like to request.
