Thurston Howl Publications is now accepting submissions for its first furry anthology, Seven Deadly Sins: Furry Confessionals.
Deadline: November 1, 2016
Word count: 2,500-8,000; a little above and a little below will be acceptable
Seven Deadly Sins has been a literary trope for centuries, popularized by Italian poet Dante. They are as follows: pride, greed, lust, wrath, gluttony, envy, and sloth. This collection will be divided respectively into the seven parts. We want to see anthro-animal characters at their darkest and weakest moments: at the whorehouse, at the chopping block, in the morgue, in the dining room with the candlestick. It is perfectly fine but not required if submissions are NSFW. We are honestly expecting a fair amount of horror—especially in Wrath—and erotica—especially in Lust. However, again, adult stories are by no means required for acceptance. All story submissions must be “furry” in nature.
We will not accept much of the same that Voice is not accepting in their Neko anthology http://www.anthroaquatic.com/forum/index.php?topic=1137.0. If you are unsure, just shoot me an email at jonathan.thurstonhowlpub@gmail.com.
You can submit up to three stories, but we will only accept one per author (if any).
Reprints are fine, but you have to own full permission of the work in order for us to consider it.
We will not accept simultaneous submissions.
Payment: Authors will receive a free copy of the print book.
Send submissions in .doc or .docx format to jonathan.thurstonhowlpub@gmail.com.
Title your email with the sin in all caps, e.g. “LUST.” If you are sending more than one submission, send multiple emails instead of putting them all in one.
We will inform all authors regarding decisions within a week or two after the deadline.
Book will likely be released mid-January in plenty of time for Valentine’s Day.
Submissions per theme so far:
Lust: 3
Gluttony: 3
Wrath: 5
Sloth: 6
Greed: 3
Envy: 6
Pride: 4 (plus one from Kirisis and one from Varzen)
