Taking Submissions: Fearful Symmetries
Deadline: May 31st 2013 (not reading until May 1st but this is so you can be ready)
Payment: 7 cents per word
Fearful Symmetries guidelines
This is a non-theme, all original anthology of about 125,000 words of terror and supernatural horror. I’m looking for all kinds of horror, but if you’re going to use a well worn trope, try to do something fresh with it. If you’ve read any volumes of The Best Horror of the Year, you’ll know that my taste is pretty eclectic, that I like variety, and that while I don’t mind violence, I don’t think it should be the point of a story. I don’t want vignettes but fully formed stories that are about something. I want to be creeped out.
The pay rate is 7 cents a word up to 10,000 words, but as the anthology is only 125,000 words long, I would prefer stories up to 7500 words.
The open reading period will run from May 1-May 31 2013. Submissions instructions coming soon.
