(very tentative title)
A Furry Anthology
Edited by Tarl Hoch
Published through Armoured Fox Press
Deadline: Until Full
The theme for this anthology is Halloween.
Your story can be from any genre, from horror to slice of life, can be erotic or not, so long as the theme is Halloween. Stories that only give a light dressing of Halloween will be passed over for stories that follow the theme and keep things interesting for the reader. (as they will be reading a number of stories all centered around Halloween)
As this is a furry anthology, your story MUST include anthropomorphic animals. Including humans is perfectly acceptable. Were-creatures are not considered anthro characters, but you are welcome to include them as long as you have anthro-characters present. (if you have any doubt, please contact the editor)
We will NOT accept:
Racism, sexism, or discrimination presented in a positive light.
Pedophilia or sex with characters under the age of 18.
Rape, torture, dubious consent, forced seduction.
If you are in doubt, ASK. Better to ask then to get a straight up rejection!
Submission Details
Length: Our preferred length is approximately 3,000 to 12,000 words. We are willing to take longer works, but shorter ones are more likely to be rejected.

How to submit: Send .rtf, .doc, or .docx via email to Tarl Hoch, editor, at armouredfoxpress@gmail.com.
