FICTION

Storehouse Voices is drawn to fiction rooted in a specific world, culture, and/or experience that engages readers from the first page to the last. If your novel makes us feel like we've lived somewhere we've never been, we want to hear from you.

• Black life and culture -- Multigenerational sagas, coming-of-age that doesn't end at 25, fiction that takes Black male interiority seriously
• Immigrant and diasporic experience -- What it means to belong nowhere and everywhere at once
• Upmarket and satirical fiction -- Work with a point of view that isn't afraid to use it. Novels that poke at love, status, and the stories we tell about ourselves
• Speculative and magical realist fiction -- High concept, propulsive plot, a world we haven't been in before
• Domestic suspense and thriller -- Family, secrets, moral complexity
• Genre fiction -- Rom-com, satirical horror, and beyond. Voice and stakes are imperative
• Later-in-life coming-of-age -- Characters 40+ still figuring it out
• Suburban underbellies -- The facade of respectability cracked open. Moral gray areas, women behaving badly for understandable reasons
