I'm currently looking to publish a collection of flash fiction (around 20,000 words in total) and am looking for publishers who may be interested. However, it's frustrating as so many publishers just seem permanently closed to submissions even though they have a steady slate of books being released.
Most of the stories have been previously published (see the Publishing History page on this site) and I would really appreciate any suggestions on publishers who may be open to looking at the manuscript.
The stories in question are:

A Fresh

published in Bizarro Central
The Man in the
Street – 960 words - originally published in decomP
