Lightspeed is seeking original science fiction stories of 1500-7500 words. Stories of 5000 words or less are preferred. All types of science fiction are welcome, from near-future, sociological soft sf, to far-future, star-spanning hard sf, and anything and everything in between. No subject should be considered off-limits, and we encourage writers to take chances with their fiction and push the envelope.
