Author Guidelines
We only accept electronic submissions at this time. Files should be attached, not pasted into the body of the email, in .DOC format. Please provide a brief cover letter in the body of the email with all your contact info, title, word count and publication history, if any. Never been published? No worries, we still want to hear from you. Everyone starts somewhere and we love to work with talented, undiscovered authors.
Story Format:
- 12 point font
- Times New Roman or Courier New
- Double-spaced
- Contact information in the upper left (name, address, phone number, email)
- Word count upper right
- 1 Space after a punctuation mark
- Underline everything you would like to italicize at publication
We do not accept simultaneous submissions or previously published work. We do not accept multiple submissions to a single anthology. You may submit to all our open anthologies, but only one story per anthology at a time. If your first story is rejected, then you may send a second.
Payment varies for each anthology. Please see the anthology page for pay specifics.
Subject line and email varies for each anthology, so please see submissions page for specifics.
All submissions will be replied to within one week. If you do not receive a reply after seven days assume we did not receive your submissions and please resend.
All other queries should be sent to editor@bloodboundbooks.net
