Theme: A charity anthology to donate to The Trevor Project open to most genres to help on suicide prevention among LGBTQ+ youth
Mirrors Reflecting Shadows: A Trevor Project Charity Anthology
Considering the increasing marginilazation LGBTQ+ individuals and the attack on gender affirming care through legislation Outcast Press, Anxiety Press, and Roi Fainéant Press have teamed up to curate a charity anthology with proceeds going towards The Trevor Project. For over 20 years, The Trevor Project has worked tirelessly on suicide prevention among LGBTQ+ youth, who are more than four times as likely to attempt suicide than their peers (Johns et al., 2019; Johns et al., 2020).
We are open to most genres, including, but not limited to, literary, transgressive, horror, crime, noir, and speculative fiction. The pieces can be about most anything, so don’t feel you need to write about LGBTQ+ issues. We want a smorgasbord of short stories and flash fiction. Of course you can touch on these topics, and are encouraged to do so, but the point is to gather excellent short fiction in service of a great cause.
(We aim to publish approximately 30 pieces)
Guidelines:
Flash: 300-1,000 words (roughly)
Via: A Thin Slice of Anxiety.
