Submissions for Anthology Now Accepted

HERE’S THE DEALIO:


Eyrie Press is now taking submissions for a new anthology.


Here’s how it will work:

You submit your funny farm stories. (That’s tales from your life in the country, not stories from your stint in the asylum.)

If we like them we’ll edit them as needed and include them in our upcoming anthology.

You get a free copy and you can buy additional copies at wholesale to sell for whatever you wish (wholesale is anticipated to be around $10 and the suggested retail price will be $14.95).

We want true (or mostly true) tales of life in the country. You may submit as many as you please, but we won’t print more than three from any given author.

Stories may be any length between 300 and 1,500 words, but we’re more likely to print stories between 500 and 750 words. All submissions need to be clean (poop is the strongest word we’ll print) and highly amusing (but they can be touching and meaningful, too). All authors will be credited and appreciated.

CONTEST:

We don’t yet have the title story. So, we’re holding a contest. The best story about getting “chicken poop on your sole” (you can make this one up out of thin air if you need to) will win the privilege of being the first story in the book and you’ll receive $50 plus a certificate of merit and two free copies of the book.

Submissions will be received through September 2015 and we intend to publish in time for Christmas.

Submissions should be emailed [as Word files] to: gregory.zschomler@gmail.com
