Dreadful Legacies: SUBMISSIONS CLOSED

Dreadful Legacies
Edited by George Wilhite

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: CLOSED -- EDITED AND WAITING FOR PUBLISHING


Are legacies handed down from one generation to another, through family ties or common ancestry fated to affect us? Can we escape them or are they predestined to shape our existence?

I am looking for dark, atmospheric, scary tales of family curses, lands wrongfully taken and the consequences to future generations, supernatural blood lines—any kind of legacy that results in a horror story.

Send submissions to geojazz@sbcglobal.net with “Dreadful Legacies” in the subject line. I will consider multiple submissions, but please send one story at a time.

No minimum or maximum word count, but please query first for works over 10,000 words to let me know the central idea. Reprints are fine as long as you hold all the rights.

ALSO: I have accepted some poetry and am now open to more.

Payment is exposure only--no payment or contributor's copies.

FORMAT:

Please send submissions like this: Title, name, content, bio. The bio must be at the end of the story in the manuscript. Single space, indented paragraphs (do not indent first paragraph), and no space between paragraphs. Times New Roman, Courier, or Georgia fonts preferred. Scene breaks should be shown with a CENTERED ***

Also, if you have not submitted to a Static Movement anthology before, please check out Chris Bartholomew’s guidelines at:

Forbidden Attraction by Danielle Rose is the first acceptance. A very interesting take on the theme, indeed, and no spoilers beyond that. Nuff said.
Thanks Danielle
