Deadline: April 1st, 2018 Payment: $30 minimum, details below With volume 5 in edits, it’s time to start planning the sixth volume of the Bikes in Space series of feminist bicycle science fiction, currently planned to come out in early 2020. The theme for this issue is: Dragons. Story length: 500 to 8,000 words (stories on the shorter end tend to appeal to me more). Deadline: April 1, 2018 (Changed from February 1st to avoid editorial burnout!) Format: Email a Word, Google, PDF, or txt/rtf document to elly at takingthelane dot com. I prefer to read submissions blindly, so please don’t include your name or contact details on your manuscript. Submissions of black and white illustrations or comics are also welcome. Pay: A percentage of net profits from the Kickstarter project used to fund the book is split evenly between contributors, not less than $30 per story. More about the themes: Stories can be in any science fiction or fantasy – ish genre: high fantasy, hard SF, space opera, fairy tales, solarpunk, spec fic, slipstream… anything but fanfic. Dragons can be literal or metaphorical, from a specific cultural tradition or entirely of your own invention. Surprise me! All stories must contain bicycles—the story doesn’t need to be about bicycling, but this element must be central enough that removing it would change the story significantly. Same goes with feminism. The story doesn’t have to be about feminism, but it does need to break from tired old gender stereotypes. I am especially looking for stories by writers who don’t often see their experiences reflected in mainstream science fiction and fantasy. P.S. Here’s a photo of an actual dragon bicycle for your enjoyment. Via: Taking The Lane.

Dealine: April 1st, 2018 Payment: 6 cents per word Open for Submissions: Jan 1 - Apr 1 2018 Expected Publication: Late 2018 Story Length: 1500 - 5000 words Payment: .06 / word ( SFWA professional rates ) We're looking for works of short speculative fiction that consider the future of the internet, artificial intelligence, the mind, and robots. Give us your optimistic, fantastic, bittersweet stories of fantasy and science fiction. Please, no YA dystopian, robots will destroy the world, high fantasy tropes. Take a more original and nuanced view on the subject. No multiple submissions. No simultaneous submissions. No reprints. Submission Method: Send a brief cover letter in the body of an email with the story name, approximate word count, and author contact info. Attach your piece to the email in Rich Text ( .rtf ) format.

Via: Paper Dog Books.

Deadline: April 15th, 2018 Payment: $25 Note: While many of Circlet's calls tend to fall into speculative fiction, we're still in a gray area on anything that would be erotica. However, this one doesn't have that push unline many of the publisher's titles so we thought you might want to take a look at something a little different. Possible Titles: The Romantic Ace; Acethetic Edited by Victoria Pond It seems like every romance movie, book, and song out there equates lust with love, and that means some of us are left out. Not everyone feels lust. Not everyone even wants romantic love. Here’s your chance to talk about romance for the characters uninterested in sex. Give me your space pilots in serious relationships with their sentient ships. Think about how an incubus would patiently court a demi-sexual. Maybe you have a regency fantasy where only a virgin can wield the talisman, and thank goodness we’ve got an adult countess who can step up. Let’s not define this by what it isn’t. Allosexuality dominates the rest of the media. Here’s a chance for ace pride to shine. Submit your stories from all over the spectra—from science fiction to fantasy, from sex-repulsed to demi-sexual, from romantic to platonic. This romance anthology celebrates asexuality in all its forms, in all its levels. Maybe your characters will take things to their allosexual conclusions, but maybe they won’t. And, as it ought to be in reality, that’s up to you. “Ace” puns highly encouraged. (You know: the dogfighting “flying ace” who has a closer-than-lovers arrangement with his mechanic.) Email your submissions to [email protected]. We do not publish poetry. Stories should generally be between 2500 and 8500 words (though we’re flexible for a great story). Originals only, no reprints. We purchase first rights for inclusion in the ebook...

Deadline: April 15th, 2018 Payment: $150+ (Read below.) About The Future Visions Anthologies is a science fiction anthology series, aiming to deliver excellent and diverse short story collections on a quarterly basis. In the tradition of great television anthology series such as The Twilight Zone, and Black Mirror, the Future Visions Anthologies will broadly explore all genres and traditions of science fiction and speculative fiction, seeking in each story to explore deeply themes that are relevant to a modern audience. Themes What do you hope the future will bring? What are you afraid we may become? How do our visions of the future inform and give shape to the hopes and fears that we have today? These questions are what defines anthology series like The Twilight Zone and Black Mirror. Rather than mandating a theme for each publication, (one publication for cyborgs, one for time travelers, etc...) I want authors to feel free to explore these larger questions using any and all of the popular science fiction tropes: new technology, exploration, nightmarish dystopians, alien species, baffling utopias, the list goes on... Diversity The Future Visions Anthologies seeks to bring diversity to all aspects of their publications, from the stories and authors we publish, to the themes and genres we explore. All authors may apply regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or political affiliation. Terms The Future Visions Anthologies seeks to engage authors with fair and equitable terms through participation in the anthologies. The anthologies will be enrolled in Kindle Unlimited for an initial six-month term, during which stories will be exclusive to the anthology. After this, anthologies will continue be available as an ebook (not in KU) for an additional six-month term. During this term, partial publication rights will return to the author to publish as an ebook, except for in KU. After one year, the ebook will be unpublished,...

Deadline: April 15th, 2018 Payment: 4 to 5p (~6¢) per word Submission guidelines Submissions are currently opened for our first issue and will close on 15th April 2018. Please read and follow the guidelines below to ensure your piece can be processed promptly. The theme The first issue will centre on the concept of home in the broadest sense, from the physical structure to the social construct. For instance, we hope the stories will revisit what the notion of home is – a house, a planet, a device? – and what it means to feel at home or homesick. What do we mean by home? How does the concept of home adapts as the world around us changes at a radical pace? What we’re looking for We welcome a range of science fiction and speculative short stories, from micro fictions to 5000 word pieces. This is not a hard limit, but use your best judgement when it comes to sending something longer than that. We accept multiple submissions of micro and flash fictions totalling less than 5000 words. For longer texts, please only send the one that’s most relevant to the theme. We understand that authors sometimes send the same story to multiple outlets simulataneously but insist that you send withdrawal requests to the concerned parties if your piece is accepted. We’re generally not open to reprints and will not accept anything that is still available online or in print, regardless of time of publication. If you feel your piece is particularlyrelevant and is not available anymore, please get in touch. We tend to commission non-fiction but we do accept submissions (or pitches) if you have written or can write something that fits the theme. Process Please send your story in an editable format such as a Word document (.doc, .docx) or rich...

Deadline: April 30th, 2018 Payment: $50 and royalties Do you really love classic fantasy, but also love making totally modern snarky jokes? Have you always wanted to write an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Supernatural? Do you want to write about an amazing fantasy heroine who doesn't seem to fit into any other setting? Then this is the anthology for you! ELF SAGA is a series about heroines from all over the world coming together to solve mysteries, slay beasts, save innocents, and deal with family drama (usually). It's also about making fun of your situation, even as your situation is trying to eat you alive. It's about pointing out absurdity, even as you're forced to be friends with that absurdity. It's about laughing at death, even as you're dying. (But mostly laughing.) This new anthology, ELF SAGA: BEYOND DOOMSDAY, is set around the time of the novel ELF SAGA: DOOMSDAY. Writers are invited to create their own original characters to explore new corners of this vast fantasy world. You are encouraged to read the novel (it's free) to get a sense of the world and the tone, and then let your imagination run wild. You can set your story before, during, or after the novel (the world changes a lot during the novel, so it may matter to your story). Let's get right into the details: SUBMISSION DETAILS!
