Limitless Publishing is accepting short stories for the horror and dark fiction anthology Carnival of Nightmares. Completed
stories should be 10,000 words (7,500 minimum, 12,000 maximum, with 10,000 as
the ideal length).
We are looking for original, dark, delightfully disturbed
stories ranging from classic horror to dark, urban fantasy style.
In keeping with the theme, the story should feature elements
involving a circus, carnival, traveling show, or amusement park. Whether it’s a
spectral show that appears as an omen of darkness to come, a monster hiding in
plain sight in a seemingly innocent family venue, or a band of traveling
performers with an evil agenda, it’s something that will inspire nightmares.
Interested authors should email with a short summary (not to exceed 250 words) of their story
in the body of the email and attach
the following in two separate Word documents:
·
Document 1: Your complete, edit-ready short
story of approximately 10,000 words. Format as follows…
o
1” margins, 12-point Times New Roman
o
Auto indent for paragraphs of 0.2” (Do NOT use
tabs)
o
Single space, with NO additional line space
between paragraphs
o
If your story contains chapters, use a page
break (control+enter) to move to the new page. (Do NOT hit multiple line returns
to reach the new page)
·
Document 2: Author’s recent publishing history
and current social media links
DEADLINE to submit the story is JUNE 1, 2018.
Submissions should be sent to lori@limitlesspublishing.com.
