Paranormal Horror Anthology!

Going to do a paranormal holiday horror anthology. Why? Because it would be fun and different to do! If your interested here are the rules.

1. Email the story to theeternalseries@hotmail.com. Put "paranormal anthology" and the title in the subject.

2. Send attachments - please don't copy and paste your story in the body. It gets jumbled and hard to read.

3. Deadline is November 14. That may be e...xtended, but right now, November 14.

4. You may send multiple submissions but send them in separate emails. If I like more than one, I'll use more than one! :)

5. MUST contain ghosts, zombies, vampires, werewolves, demons, goblins, etc to be considered. Also must be "wintery" in season. It can revolve around a holiday if you wish but as long as it's the winter season that's all I care about.

6. Must be 5,000-8,000 words in length.

7. For submission it doesn't need to be edited perfectly but get it as close as possible so it's easier for me to edit later. ;)

8. Use typical formatting. As long as it's easy to read. Double spaced please.

9. This is an indie project so it will be published through createspace and I will cover costs myself. So other than the story, you will not have any other requirements. Anyone whose story is chosen will receive 2 copies of the novel as payment as well as a discount code/password to be able to purchase copies at the cost of publication. So you will share rights to your story with me so i can publish your work. Your name will obviously be on your story in the novel and will be credited properly. This will come in handy when getting your name out there.

10. As an afterthought - please refrain from using offensive religious material, politics, and rape is also a BIG no-no.

11. Stop by and 'like' the facebook fanpage! Www.facebook.com/theeternalseries


For those who are considering this remember - as an indie writer- in the beginning - it's not about how much money you make. It's getting your name out there. Thats why I'm doing this. It's a quick project because of the cooperation and help from other writers and it gets a name out there. If you were looking for something to do for November for the sacred novel writing month - this is it. It will be completed in November and published in early - mid december in time for the holidays I am hoping. So PLEASE check this out and please consider it. I'd love to have you. If we have a lot of submissions - no - I cannot guarantee you a spot but that is not to say you wont get a spot in another contest. So keep your head up and I will keep you informed! Thank you all SO much!
