Submission Guidelines

All submissions should include the main character or characters traveling to another realm.

All stories must be between 5,000 words and 20,000 words.

All stories submitted should be professionally edited to eliminate as many errors as possible. Submissions riddled with obvious errors will be rejected.

Each story must be able to stand alone. This does not mean you can’t use characters from your other books, just that the anthology story itself should be able to be read separately and still make sense.
