Bull Running

 

Just to let you know that Bull Running for Girls has now sold out! So my apols to anyone still wanting to purchase a copy of this title. BRFG not only won a Best Collection award, but has also been the best-selling SD title I've published so far. I wish I had more books like this one!

Making Progress...

There has been a lot happening at the SD office lately, so keep watching for new things coming soon! The eZine will be back up and running shortly, with the help of assistant editor Alice Pattillo. More books for print are in production ready for FantasyCon. Plus I've been busy working on new artwork commissions and various other creative projects. There is still a lot of work ahead, but at least there has been a lot of progress in the background here over the past few months, so I hope 2012 will prove to be a year of growth for Screaming Dreams.

New Website Design

I've started to upload the new SD site design. There are some bits missing yet, so please bear with me over the next week or two! But at least the basic framework is online now, Be sure to refresh your browser so you are viewing the updated files and not the old ones in your cache. http://www.screamingdreams.com

The Year Anthology

Screaming Dreams and Noose & Gibbet are proud to announce a joint project, simply called ‘THE YEAR’. It will be published in 2013 and edited by Johnny Mains and Steve Upham. This will be an anthology which will showcase the very best writings of Crime, Horror, Science Fiction and Fantasy. 52 stories, one for each week of the year...

This project will be open to submissions from today and while we are mainly focused on new, original fiction – there will be three classic reprints from each genre from different periods in that particular field’s history.

As the budget for the publishers will be rather taxing, payment will be £10 and a copy of the finished book. Stories will have to be no more than 3k in length. If you’re a horror writer but have always wanted to write a crime tale, give it a shot – if you’re a die-hard sci-fi scribe, why not jump into the land of orcs and magic talismans. What will NOT get into the book are mash-ups, emotive vampires and sadly there will be no room at the inn for zombies. Try and stay away from the drunk, emotionally scarred detective and steampunk shenanigans. TV and film related spin off stories will also be a no-go.

The deadline will be July 1st 2012 – this will give you enough time to think of a story, write it and send it in. In the subject box put your name, title of the story and its genre. You will be informed of whether you are in the book by Sept 1st 2012. No multiple submissions allowed and the date for all authors to sign off their individual stories will be February 1st 2013 with the book being published at the World Fantasy Convention in Brighton Oct 31st – Nov 3rd 2013. Due to prohibitive postage costs in sending contributor copies, story submissions will only be accepted from authors residing in the U.K. Payment and contributor copies will be sent out the week of Monday 13th November, 2013 unless authors are in attendance at the convention.

All submissions and enquiries to theyearanthology@gmail.com

Good luck!
