Celtic Blade Anthology Deadline: December 10th 2011 Payment: Exposure Only Red Skies Press welcomes new guest editor, Dorothy Davies, who will be hosting this anthology of dark/horror fiction set in the time of Celtic legends and heroes.

No simultaneous submissions. In other words if you have submitted your story elsewhere, we don't want it.
