SUMMARY:F - Myths\, Gods & Immortals Anthology Series Seeking Submissions on Circe and Anansi
DESCRIPTION: Flame Tree are bringing you a brand new gorgeous hardcover series brimming with myths and short stories. \n  \nDiscover the mythology of humankind through its heroes\, characters\, gods and immortal figures. Myths\, Gods & Immortals brings together the new and the ancient\, familiar stories with a fresh and imaginative twist. Each book brings back to life a classic mythological or folkloric figure\, with completely new stories alongside the original tales. New and emerging writers from open submissions reveal hidden themes\, casting fresh perspectives on well-known stories\, alongside specially commissioned text on the origins and the cultural background of the mythology. We’ve already closed submissions for the first two books in the series\, Medusa and Odin\, where stories are still under consideration. We’re now opening up submissions for the next two books\, Circe and Anansi. \n \n\nCirce\nEnchantress\, goddess\, witch\, predatory seductress… Inevitably\, Circe has been best-known in these terms\, through the male gaze of Homer\, Hesiod et al.\, as interpreted by readers and storytellers until today. Rarely does the classic literature give us a rounded view of a woman subject to the same flaws and emotions as the rest of us: jealousy\, desire\, unrequited love; her witchcraft is perhaps not so much dreadful as awe-inspiring and led by nature. What we know of her story is piecemeal\, from many sources. This enriching collection will bring together new stories and ancient origins\, offering a wider perspective on the whole life of the enigmatic\, enchanting Circe. Stories submitted for consideration need to explore new or expanded angles to the character: have her follow alternative paths\, present different viewpoints\, give deeper background\, counter the patriarchal narrative and male gaze\, or perhaps pursue story lines that are hinted at in the original tales and poetry. \nSubmissions to: Circe@flametreepublishing.com \n  \nTerms:\n\nMultiple submissions are fine but must be in separate emails.\nSimultaneous submissions are fine but you must have the right to license your story in an anthology.\nFor accepted stories we pay Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA) rates of 8 cents/6 pence per word for original stories\, 6 cents/4 pence for reprints.\nWe will aim to read each story and confirm its status within 4 months of the submission deadline.\nPayment for the chosen stories will be made within 30 days of the final advertised publication date (see our website flametreepublishing.com for details)\, although some may be paid earlier than that.\nSubmission does not imply the right to publication. Each story will be read and assessed by the selection panel.\nLet us know in your submission email whether your story would be a reprint or is currently unpublished.\n\nImportant Notice about Submissions and Guidelines\nWe’re always looking for better ways of working so we’ve tweaked our submission process to allow us to read more stories\, and spend more time assessing the balance of our books. So follow these rules to avoid your story getting lost in our system! \n\nSubmissions must use the dedicated email address.\nThe subject line of the email must be the story title.\nThe file with the story must be attached to the email (.docx\, .doc or .rtf format).\nThe name of the file must match the name in the subject line.\nIf submitting more than one story\, please submit one story per email.\n\nOther useful tips for a more successful submission:\n\n\nThe file name of the submission must be the story name only.\nPlease just use spaces between words in the title (not _ or – ).\nIf the story name starts with A or The\, please use it at the beginning of the file name.\nIf you’d like to add some details about the story\, confirm if it’s new or a reprint\, or add a short bio of yourself\, please add to the body of the email not as an attachment.\nStory length is most likely to be successful at 3\,000-4\,000 words\, but we will still read stories slightly outside this range.\nIf submitting a story that has recently been submitted to us for consideration to another anthology\, please state this in the submission email.\nDeadline for submissions is 23rd June 2024.
