Knightwatch Press are putting together a brand new zombie anthology, and we need your brains.

Sunny with a Chance Of Zombies is set for release in Summer 2015, and we’re looking to fill it with a collection of strangely uplifting stories to go with the lighter season.

Have you got what it takes to bring something new to the walking dead?

We want original ideas that defy the expectations of our readers. Surprise us with your settings, bring us some new or skewed perspectives, horrify us by all means, but above all make us smile.

Send your story to [email protected] as either a .doc or .rtf file. The subject of your email should have your Surname, the word Sunny and your word-count in it.

To avoid disappointment please ensure your submission reflects the brief and sticks to the following format:

Between 2000-6000 words long, in Standard Manuscript Format

Typed in Courier or Times New Roman 12

Include your full details (name/address/telephone number/email address) at the top of your document

Failure to comply will result in… being dumped in a brutal zombie-infested post-apocalyptic world. With no wifi.

Previously published stories will not be considered for this anthology. Authors will retain copyright.

Multiple submissions up to a maximum of two stories per author can be submitted.

We will write to you between four and eight weeks after the submission deadline to let you know if you have been successful.

We will pay 4% royalties per story published in ebook and paperback form. You will also receive a contributor’s ebook copy.
