A Speculative Fiction Anthology from Seventh Star Press

Edited by Scott Sandridge

From Scott:

“Bring out the Fey! Stories about the Sidhe? Sprites? Pixies? Boggans
and Goblins? How about those Gnomes?

Looking for fictional stories involving the Fey Folk, both Seelie and
Unseelie. From the campy to the deep and esoterical, from traditional
faeries to the not-so-traditional (changeling kangaroos, anyone?),
Western to Eastern, heck even Martian!

Fantasy is obviously expected but all spec-fic genres welcome. Got a
SF story about a Space Leprechaun invasion of Earth? Send it!
Slipstream? Go for it! A slasher involving psychopathic trolls with
chainsaws and a fetish for wearing human skin? Ehhh….aw heck, why
not?

The anthology will be done in flipbook format, with stories about
Seelie faeries on one side and Unseelie faeries on the other. Planning for an even mix of Seelie and Unseelie stories, roughly 11 per side.

Guidelines: 10,000 words maximum/2,000 words minimum. Blood and gore
only if it fits the story, same goes for sex.

Submissions via email to scott (at) seventhstarpress.com

RTF and DOC. formats only, Courier or Times New Roman, 12pt. font (in
other words, make sure it’s readable!)

The subject of your email should have your name, title of your story,
and either Seelie or Unseelie to denote which side of the flipbook
your story is for. Not sure of which court your story would belong in? Wikipedia is your friend:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seelie#Seelie_and_Unseelie_Courts

Since, technically, this is almost like two anthologies, you can send
a story for each side (one Seelie story and one Unseelie story). Send
each one seperately, following the above guidelines. Note, however,
that only one story total per author can be accepted.”

Guidelines: 10,000 words max/2,000 words minimum.
