Anthology Calls

I found a few anthology calls this morning, some I've mentioned before and the deadlines are approaching and a couple are new ones.

This first one is a short notice with a September 1 deadline from Festival of Frights publishing. The anthology is entitled "Zombie Uprising". The pay is 1 copy for 6000 to 25,000 words. You can find the details at http://fofpub.festivalsoffright.com/?p=70

Cutting Block Press has two anthology calls that I've mentioned before. They pay 1.5cents a word. One anthology has an October 31 deadline the other when filled. http://cuttingblock.net/submissions.html

"Bewere the Night" is still open for subs about were creatures. Reprints are paid 1cent a word and originals stories 5cents a word with a December deadline. The original call is here http://fishmonkey.blogspot.com/2010/04/new-anthology.html and the update is here http://fishmonkey.blogspot.com/2010/08/bewere-night-update.html

Wolf Singer Publications has an open call for "A Taste of Armageddon". They're looking for spec-fiction that explores the advancement of "clean" warfare techniques. 3000 to 5000 words with a November 30 deadline. The pay is $5 plus a share of 50% of the royalties. You can find all the details at http://www.wolfsingerpubs.com/OpenCalls.html

While I was searching for anthologies I stumbled across a new site for markets called Ask Wendy - The Query Queen. She has some good leads for short story writers. I'll be putting her link in the market resource column later. You can check the site out here http://askwendy.wordpress.com
