live happily ever after.
Yeah right!
Have you seen a dragon – they are truly badass m*****f*****s. Armor plated, huge, breathe fire, huge teeth and claws. Yeah, right, a single knight
with a sword is going to defeat that.
—
What we are looking for are stories that feature really badass dragons – they can be evil or good – or somewhere in between. The point is they need
to live up to the power and strength we picture when we imagine a dragon.
If your dragon is able to be defeated by a human knight – it should be because…well, I’m not sure what it should be because of – but it needs to be
believable to someone who knows beyond all doubt dragons are the biggest, baddest predators out there.
Show us why you should never meddle in the affairs of dragons as they may consider you crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
Break the story-writing rules if you want. If you use a tried and true plotline, twist it in an original and interesting way. Original stories are preferred.
Query for reprints.

free to send the editor a story. In your cover email, please tell the editor a bit about yourself and a quick one-line synopsis of the story. Include
