It has been said that there is but one axiom upon which the ancient mystics and modern influencers may have agreed…
Creature was born out of a desire to promote the creative works of fantasy and science fiction that have gone previously underrepresented in other larger submission programs. Born out of a meeting between five young artists, Creature was envisioned as a way for creatives of all stripes and colours to have a chance to get their work published and reviewed. Not all of us have the connections or the ability to get our work out into the greater world so easily and Creature is a way for the most promising writers to express their abilities and get the eyes of the public on to them.

I want to believe that I’m completely over you. Until I see the footpath we used to walk on the way home from school…

Today I sold something that used to be called an iPhone. But I call it a Hen-Wizard…

In 2045, a small biotech company had remarkable success with a new fertilising additive called AD.4.1…

Jellies never travelled alone. First time I’d seen one with a maid. I flicked a piece of tuna from my teeth and scanned the cave…

The fire crackled as curtains gently lifted, revealing their bony ribs inside a dark attic…

The woman who lived at the crossroads could tell people’s fortunes by chewing betel leaves and reading the saliva-coated pulp she spat back into their palms…
