*Thanks SO much and feel free to share this with ANY authors you feel would be interested in contributing 🙂

What rights do we want?
First publishing rights, (we will review pre published Drabbles on an individual basis but stories that have not been previously printed will get first place) the right to use the drabble for as long as there is demand for the book, the right to edit each Drabble for any missed grammatical errors, and the right to use parts of the book and the author’s name for promotion. You will keep all other rights and can republish the story once the book has been in print for six months.

What you get:
This is a ‘for the fun of it’ submission only.

How your stories should be sent:
– Type in WORD format, if possible. Single spaced
– YOU retain rights to your Drabble
– Save file as: SMALLEST_YourTitle
– Title, Author’s Name, and Author’s Email MUST be on the document.
– The Drabbles should be edited to the best of your ability but they will be looked over for any missed grammatical errors.

Where to send it:
– Editor at: [email protected]@knightwatchpress.info

When to send it by:
Deadline for submission is Feb 1st (or, until full) We will take all entries and choose the best of the bunch for publication!
