Taking Submissions: Distressing Damsels

October 25, 2016 - October 26, 2016

Deadline: October 25th, 2016
Payment: Contributor’s Copy
Note: I apologize on the short call, just stumbled across this publisher. Hopefully someone has something socked away for it if interested.
Note #2, reprints allowed

Submission Period: September 25th-October 25th
 
Word Count:    100-25,000
Theme:      Due to the popularity of our Princess Fairy Tale Anthology, we are opening submissions for another fairy tale theme. For this anthology, we are looking for stories that focus on strong heroines. We want to see stories of damsels who save themselves instead of waiting for a man to do the job for them. We want Rapunzel to find her own way out of the tower, the little mermaid to shove that dagger into the prince’s heart and win back her life, Snow White to shove that poisoned apple into the queen’s face… you get the idea. All genres and styles are accepted as long as the story is based on an actual fariy tale. The fairy tale does not have to be well known; we love reading the obscure ones just as much as Snow White and Cinderella.
We will not publish erotica in our normal monthly issues, but we do know that this is a very popular genre, which is why we are going to accept erotica submissions for anthology publication. 
However, please do not send us:
Incest (step relations are fine), underage, or necrophilia (exception being supernatural anthropomorphic creatures/undead). No excrement/urine play.
THESE EXEMPTIONS GO FOR ALL SUBMISSIONS FOR EVERY ANTHOLOGY. NO EXCEPTIONS.
 
Response Time:  Please allow up to two weeks. After that, if you don’t hear from us then feel free to give us a little nudge.
 
Payment: Compensation for the anthology will be one paperback print copy as well as a PDF.
Editing: Yes, your story will be edited if we decide to accept it. After we go through and edit your story, it will then be sent back to you for final approval.
Reprints, Multiple & Simultaneous Submissions: Yes
Expected Release: We have anthologies scheduled to be released in October and November, so this one will be aimed for late December or January.
Guidelines for Submissions:
 
  • All submissions are to be sent to [email protected].
  • In the subject line please type ANTHOLOGY SUBMISSION: [Your Story Title Here].
  • In the body of your email, please include your name, genre, the fairy tale your story is based off of and word count. If the story is under 1,000 words, you may paste the text in the body of the email, otherwise please attach it. 
We will list all published authors on our site. Once you have a story accepted for publication, we will post a little author bio up on our site with a list of all published pieces (published by FDM).
