🐺 Call for Submissions: Marked by the Wolf 🐺
I am thrilled to announce the first installment in our Fairytale Reimagined series, now part of The Writer's Block Anthologies: Marked by the Wolf.
The Theme
This anthology is a loose Little Red Riding Hood retelling. It is open to most genres as long as your story fits the theme. Your story can feature traditional wolves, wolf shifters, or even a "wolf-like" individual—it just needs to revolve around a character who could be considered a "wolf."
Rolling Submission Model
We are moving away from fixed deadlines. This anthology will remain open for submissions until it is officially "Full." A collection is considered full when:
- At least 10 authors have submitted accepted stories.
- A minimum of 100,000 total words has been reached.
Note on Selection: To ensure a high-quality reading experience, submission does not guarantee acceptance. The Writer's Block reserves the right to decline stories that do not meet our quality standards or thematic requirements.
Submission Details
- Word Count: 5,000–25,000 words.
- Status: Currently OPEN for submissions.
- Publication Date: Targeted for approximately 30 days after the anthology is "Full."
Professional Standards & Author Services
To be considered for publication, all stories must be professionally edited. If you need assistance preparing your manuscript, The Writer's Block Editing Team offers the following services:
- Beta Reading: $.005/word (for early feedback to help you shape your story).
- Professional Editing: $.01/word.
Please note: Utilizing our editing services improves your manuscript but does not automatically guarantee acceptance into the anthology.
Rights, Royalties, & Kickstarter Editions
- Rights: Authors grant non-exclusive rights to include the story in the anthology.
- Royalties: Paid via Draft2Digital royalty split. All contributors must have a Draft2Digital account.
- Special Editions: The Writer's Block reserves the right to create Kickstarter editions.
- Profits fund professional artwork, organizers, and advertisement costs.
- Authors receive the exclusive benefit of being able to purchase these special editions as author copies at cost.
