Working Title: Zombie Bacon and Long Pork

Zombie Bacon and Long Pork is an anthology with the most desperate and horrorible of all Apocalyptic themes: cannibalism. Human meat, often called long pork, will be the topic of every story. It will be up to each author to create their own conception of an Apocalyptic world and the lives somehow touched by mors tua, vita mea.

What rights do we want?
First publishing rights, the right to use the story for as long as there is demand for the book, the right to edit each story for missed grammatical errors, to encourage content change if there are glaring errors, to refuse any submissions that do not meet our standards, and the right to use parts of the book and the author’s name for promotion.

Although the rights stay with the author, they can’t publish again until after the book goes to print.

You will keep all other rights and can republish the story anytime you choose, after the book has been released and promoted by us.
