Halloween Shrieks - NEEDS STORIES, HELP!!!! « Thread Started on Jun 17, 2012, 11:52am »
Halloween Shrieks edited by Dorothy Davies
I keep getting Halloween coming in the stories, the Pill Hill, Wicked East Press, and Static Movement books are superb, yet methinks there is room for another...
Explore all the aspects of Halloween, no holds barred!
A 'for love only' anthology, no money, no copies, but loads of exposure.
Please send stories to dorothystaticm@gmail.com with 'halloween' in the subject line.
Single spacing, please, no headers, footers or page numbers. Reprints are fine. Be sure to let me have a short bio with your story for the end of the anthology, for my Meet the Authors section. No word limit either way.
Please send the story as an attachment in anything but odt. I can't always open those. Please ensure the formatting is half decent, indented paragraphs, no extra lines between the paragraphs and dialogue (I have to edit them all out) and most of all, only 1 space between words. I have had a story in where there are 2 spaces between the words, can't be doing with it! Yes, I can find and replace but it is better if it comes in right in the first place. 99% of the stories which come in are fine, I have to say, but a few are not. When there are a lot of stories waiting to be read, I will naturally go to the ones which have been sent in the proper format. It's only natural.

It's so exciting you opened this, since I missed the three previous Halloween books because I didn't have anything long enough. But thankfully they're still getting published elsewhere. I am soooooo glad you don't have limits either way. Now I can really go to town with this one. I actually thought of my own Halloween book, but maybe for next year. We'll see.
