Today I'd like to mention a story anthology that is seeking
submissions. It's being put together by
Robert MacAnthony, a contributor to The Temporal Element. While this project is not a Martinus
Publishing anthology, he asked that I pass the word along, and I wish him the
best of luck with it. It's also a good
opportunity for writers who would like to get more exposure and collect a few
dollars in the process.
Shadows of a Fading World
-A Sword & Sorcery Anthology-
Shadows of a Fading World is a
classic sword-and-sorcery style fantasy e-Book anthology in the dying earth
subgenre. Submissions should pay homage to the roots of the genre - adventure,
romance, dark sorceries, mysterious locales, and the grit and grime of common
life all have a role to play.
The "dying earth" aspect of the stories form a commonality
for the anthology. This element should be present in all submissions. Authors
may make this an integral part of the story, or simply use it to provide
background and flavor.
We are looking for original stories, set in a world of the author's own
creation. Stories should invoke visions of the classic tales of Robert E.
Howard, Fritz Leiber, Jack Vance, Michael Moorcock, and others., but authors
should not feel bound by any particular style.
For more information, and to submit your story, visit the publisher's website here.
Of course, Martinus Publishing anthologies are also open at
this time, and two more will be opening in December (Visit Martinus Publishing's Submissions Page for details). Get your stories ready and submitted!
