Tuesday, June 26, 2007Call for Submissions: Unspeakable Horror - From The Shadows of the ClosetDeadline for queries begins in October of 2007, deadline is June of 2008. 1,000-7,500 words, must reflect theme, pays 5 cents/word. Dark Scribe Press is seeking short story submissions for an anthology of queer horror tales. We are looking for edgy, provocative dark genre fiction - horror and dark psychological suspense only. We are not interested in science fiction/fantasy, mystery, or splatter punk for this anthology. We're looking for stories about those terrors that populate the closets of gays, lesbians, and bisexuals. Terrors can be of any shape, size, and theme – supernatural, psychopaths and slashers, vampires, werewolves, zombies, urban legends, ghosts, witchcraft, demons, and original horrors of any kind. At the heart of all submissions must be a distinct queer theme running through the fabric of the story – stories that represent the harmful effects of repression, the manifestation of homophobia (both internal and external), childhood anxieties that run parallel to sexual orientation and the coming out process, and any other well- conceived and executed queer theme. See complete guidelines here: unspeakablehorror.com/submissions/.
