Taking Submissions: Bright Mirror

September 30

Deadline: September 30th, 2024
Payment: $10 and a contributors copy
Theme: Uplifting Science Fiction

Oddity Prodigy Productions is proud to announce we are open for submissions on our latest anthology: Bright Mirror!!
This will be the first science fiction anthology from Oddity Prodigy Productions, following our horror and urban fantasy offerings. There is a planned Kickstarter to cover publishing costs. Publishing date and distribution is as yet undecided.
The deadline for Submissions is September 30, 2024

WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR

Have you ever looked up at the stars in the night sky and imagined what it would be like to visit them? Have you ever felt awe and wonder when you look forward to the future? We are looking for stories that capture that feeling of hope and excitement? So much of our science fiction is rooted in cynicism about what’s next, and we are looking for stories that deal in the opposite. We want to read stories of discovery and promise! Stories set in worlds filled with marvels and imagination. In short, we would love to read your best utopian science fiction story.

Star Trek is the best example, but movies like the Fifth Element, Arrival, or Contact would also be examples of the kind of stories we’re going to collect for this anthology.

WHAT WE WERE NOT LOOKING FOR

We aren’t looking for dystopias, bleak futures, cyberpunk, nihilism, or darkness.

Some sexual content is ok, but nothing too graphic or excessive. We will NOT consider stories that feature abuse or assault of a sexual nature.
