"If you will give me the pleasure of your company for some little while, "Captain Nemo said, "I shall satisfy your curiosity regarding the 'Nautilus'. And I shall try not to bore you."
~Jules Verne

What is the Nautilus Engine?

The Nautilus Engine is a webzine of speculative fiction and materials that we feel would appeal to fans of the genres (book reviews, movie trailers, science and tech, etc.). We publish original short fiction by newcomers and old pros alike, with the occasional reprint or golden oldie just to mix things up. See below for information on how you can submit work to us.

Who is the Nautilus Engine?

Ron Warren

Editor, webmaster and generally man of many hats at the Nautilus Engine. He has been a lifelong lover of science fiction and horror and enjoys contributing to the speculative fiction world in this little way. Ron dips his toe in the waters of fiction but he dives headfirst into the ocean of photography. Check out samples of his work here if you need photography in SE Michigan!


Janine Beaulieu

An original Nautilus Engine founder, contributor, and writer who lives in Michigan with 2 cats and a "whole lotta" books.


Christian Klaver

An author as well as an original NE founder, contributor, and sponsor. He lives in Livonia, MI with his wife, daughter and far too many pets. See his writing portfolio at christianklaver.com. And don't miss his truly terrific Holmes tale in The Anthology of Dark Wisdom: The Best of Dark Fiction, William Jones, ed.


Heath Lowrance

A writer and original Nautilus Engine founder and contributor. He lives in a suburb of Detroit, where he writes, reads, watches movies, listens to music, and occasionally broods rather stylishly. He is currently hard at work on his second novel, since the first one was such a massive success (The Bastard Hand from New Pulp Press). Visit his blog at psycho-noir for various ramblings and the occasional free short story.

Submission Guidelines

We publish stories with some element of speculation. This includes, but is not limited to: science-fiction, fantasy, horror, mystery, flash-fiction or any melding of these. We prefer stories under 3000 words. We prefer stories that are not pure exposition and have a pleasant balance of narrative and dialogue.

Please make it a separate attachment (.rtf please).We only accept e-mail submissions, in proper manuscript form. We try to respond within one month. The Nautilus Engine now publishes upon acceptance at http://thenautilusengine.blogspot.com/ .

The Nautilus Engine No Longer Pays

When economic conditions allow, we hope to once again be a paying market. Nautilus Engine acceptance of submitted story grants the Nautilus Engine exclusive electronic rights for a three month period. Works will be archived indefinitely, however the author may request that the work be removed from the site (after the original three month period) at their discretion. Author retains ownership and full copyright, but we request that your story not be published elsewhere during the initial three month Nautilus Engine publication period.
