Dreamweaver Press, a division of Twisted Dreams Press, is thrilled to announce two new anthology calls!
Writers everywhere are welcome to submit their short stories to these anthologies and, if your story isn’t accepted, feel free to submit another!
There is no limit to the number of times you can submit to these anthologies however, please note that each submission will be read one at a time. We wish to give our full attention to each submission and will respond to each one individually.
These two new anthology calls are as follows:
Title: Heroes Don’t Always Wear Capes: An Anthology of Superhero Stories
Theme: Superhero stories that can include a sidekick and stories must have a happy ending or a “To Be Continued” type of ending. All stories must be rated PG.
Genre: Fantasy, Science Fiction, YA, Horror, Romance
Word Count: 2K-10K
Title: Enchanted Echoes: An Anthology of Fantasy Stories
Theme: Fantasy stories with an emphasis on the inclusion of magical creatures and characters common in fantasy stories such as wizards, gnomes, etc. All stories must be rated PG. Would love to see stories set in other worlds and other universes.
Genre: Fantasy
Word count: 2K-10K
While Dreamweaver Press will be publishing these anthologies, we do not yet have a scheduled release date for each book. That said, these calls will remain open until filled. Once an anthology closes to submissions, it will be removed from this list. All writers whose work has been accepted will receive a contract with a release date after an anthology closes to submissions.
When you submit your stories, please note the following guidelines:
We will not accept any writing which glorifies or promotes hate or violence to people in marginalized communities.
No SA or rape, especially anything involving a character under the age of 18. While we are open to anything sexually explicit, we do not want it to include children or even implied that sexual acts were done to children.
No homophobia, transphobia, racism, xenophobia, queerphobia, sexism, misogyny, fetishism, antisemitism, Islamophobia, ableism or anything which discriminates or includes hate speech against the disabled community.
No hate speech towards other marginalized communities.
