SUMMARY:F - Raconteur Press Anthology Series Seeking Coffee Stories
DESCRIPTION:Coffee Stories Volume 2 \nBecause we KNOW how many of us drink the stuff—we’re going to need TWO volumes of this one. The perfect cuppa joe. The nectar of the gods. The safety liquid you hand your partner in the morning. We love the stuff\, and can’t get enough. But how did we FIND that flavorful bean? We invite our authors to visit our favorite coffee merchant\, King Harv’s Coffee\, and pick a variety from his amazing list. Then write a fantastical story about the detective work\, the journey\, the adventure of finding the oh-so-perfect plant. Don’t limit yourself to this planet! OR SF! Sword and Sorcery works too! \nFrom Dave at King Harv’s Coffee: It all began when we took over the dome at the old South Pole station for the use as a coffee greenhouse.  As you undoubtedly well know\, the coffee was banned from world trade to by that ridiculous Antarctic treaty\, and it became clear to us that coffee grown on alternate planets and celestial objects was the only thing that made economic sense. Shockingly this has never been reported on in the main stream media!\nContracts: 10/12/24\nPublication: 11/08/24 \nGuidelines for all our anthologies: \n5\,000 to 8\,000 words. Length and genre are negotiable\, as long as the story fits the concept\, and is entertaining. Any submission must be in Times New Roman (preferred\, but you can use Georgian or other readable font)\, 12PT\, double spaced\, with your name\, title of the story\, and your email on it. Name the file as [STORYTITLE]-[YOURLASTNAME]—[ANTHOLOGYTITLE]. Send it in a .docx format as an attachment—no links. \nRaconteur Press will hold the rights for one year after publication\, after one year the rights will revert to the author\, but we continue to pay you as long as the anthology is selling. Authors receive an equal percentage share of the proceeds from the anthology\, along with the Press\, our editors\, and administration. Yes\, you read that right. We don’t take 80% off the top and split the 20% left over between all the authors. We’re all in this together. This is why our anthologies are limited to ten stories. \nRaconteur Press uses Pubshare (pubshare.com) to distribute payments and handle tax forms for anthology authors\, so authors who contribute must have a free pubshare account. \nIMPORTANT: when you set up your Pubshare account you MUST choose the method by which you want to receive your royalties. There are currently two choices: PayPal at the beginning of each month\, or paper cheque each quarter. BE SURE that you have chosen a method of payment and input the required information. If you don’t Pubshare will hang on to your royalties until you choose and method of payment and input the required information. \nSubmit to: racpresssubmissions[at]gmail.com

SUMMARY:PFN - Call for Submissions to The Woolf. Theme: Animal
DESCRIPTION:Love\, fight\, fear\, hunt\, tame or release it into the wild – Animal is the prompt for Issue 7. Send us your most excellent (<2500 words)\, but please\, no cruelty to animals…and\, come to think of it\, no wolves. \nSubmission Guidelines \n\nWe only accept original\, unpublished work. If your work has already appeared in The Woolf\, please wait two issues before submitting again.\nOnly work sent through the official submission platform will be considered.\nNo name or identifying information should appear on the piece you’re submitting (we review the work blind).\nSimultaneous submissions are encouraged\, but please withdraw your work pronto if it has been accepted elsewhere (and if so\, congrats!).\nSubmissions are and will remain free. While submitting\, you’re welcome to toss something into our tip jar to help us offset expenses – it’s always appreciated.\nWhile we can’t pay contributors at this time\, we promise to promote your pieces once the issue goes live and nominate the best work for international awards where we can. (In fact\, this micro from Issue 1 was selected for the Best Microfiction 2022 anthology.)\nDespite our name\, any reference to wolves or Virginia Woolf could raise our hackles – so proceed with caution.\nFinally\, please don’t send us work that makes us question our faith in this already fragile world – stuff that’s gratuitously sexual\, overly violent\, discriminatory\, vile or just kind of morally repugnant. And since we apparently have to spell this out: no animal cruelty.\n\nCreative nonfiction <2500 words\nShort fiction <2500 words\nFlash fiction <100 words\, up to 3 pieces in one document\nMicrofiction <100 words\, up to 3 pieces in one document\nProse poetry <300 words\n\n\n\n\nRights and terms  \n\nBy submitting your work\, you grant us first electronic rights and non-exclusive archival rights. After first publication\, you retain ownership rights. If your work later appears elsewhere\, we’d love a credit for the first publication.\nSmall editorial adjustments to accepted submissions may be made in the name of clarity and flow. For more significant changes\, the author will be contacted. All other editorial decisions\, including art direction\, are the domain of The Woolf and final.\nWe reserve the right to remove contributions from the website without notice.
