Cat Anthology
PAY: $100 and two copies of the bookCalling all female cat-lovers: Would you agree that there’s hardly anything better than a little furry creature purring and kneading on your lap? Do you admire the diva-like cat-itude of your feline friend? And, most importantly, do you have something to say about cats? Then we want to hear from you. For an anthology about women and their cats (tentative title: Cat Women: Female Writers on Their Feline Friends), we’re currently seeking stories about all the ways in which cats affect our lives—good, bad, and sometimes both at the same time. Does the woman-and-cat stereotype drive you batty? Is your current furball proving that cats really do have 9 lives after all? Did you disprove the notion that cats can’t fetch? Rather than a me-and-my-cat, public display of affection for all things feline, we’re looking for a variety of stories where cats play some type of role in the story, and where there’s a strong story theme—whether it be a lesson learned, dramatic turning point, or simply a funny anecdote. THE NITTY-GRITTY: Publisher: Seal Press, an imprint of Avalon Publishing Group, publishes groundbreaking books by and for women on a variety of topics. Publishing Date: Spring ‘07. Deadline for submissions: September 1, 2006, sent to editor Megan McMorris at http://us.f349.mail.yahoo.com/ym/Compose?To=megmc@earthlink.net. If your story is selected for publication, you will be contacted by October 1. If you haven’t heard anything from us by that date, please assume your story has not been selected, as we can’t promise to respond to all submissions. Please include: Your mailing address, phone number, and a short biography including where your writing has been published. Fee: If published, you’ll receive $100 and two copies of the book, and will retain copyright of your story. Word count: As long or as short as it takes to tell the story; we’re looking for a variety of lengths, from short-and-sweet 500-word stories to more in-depth 5,000-worders (most will be in the 1,500 to 3,000-word range). Still stumped about what kind of stories would make it into the book? Look no further than the official “dog version” of this book published by Seal Press in March ’06, Woman’s Best Friend: Women Writers on the Dogs In Their Lives, also edited by Megan McMorris.

Pseudopod
PAY: $10 - $20A genre ‘zine. We’re looking for horror. We apply a fairly broad definition to “horror,” running the spectrum from supernatural horror (Dracula) to realistic horror (Cujo). We’re not going to try to pin down the genre’s boundaries and hack away at it until there’s nothing left. (We’ll leave that sort of hacking for your stories.) What matters is that the stories should be dark and they should be entertaining. If your story isn’t dark, but qualifies as science fiction or fantasy, please consider our sister site, Escape Pod. If it isn’t entertaining… Keep writing.

DIG
PAY: $.20 - $.25/wordFocuses on archaeology - recent discoveries, techniques used in the field and in the laboratory, archaeologists past and present, innovative 'dig' programs for our age audience (8- to 14-year-olds), rethinking of popular theories, and creative activities that entertain as well as inform. Accuracy is essential. Writers are encouraged to study recent back issues for content and style.

Pulp Net,
The Online Home of New FictionPAY: £100 per story published. Pulp Net is a webspace that feels like a book. It's also a headspace where anyone can write, if they want to. Unlike those who want to fight to the death for the return of bygone apostrophes, Pulp Net tries not to place too much faith in grammatical correctness. There's no point in a garden if you can't walk on the grass, no point in a flat stomach if you can't eat icecream, and there's little point in perfect prose if all readers feel is awe at its perfection. Guest editors of Pulp Net in recent months have included Helen Cross, Rajeev Balsubramanyam, Peter Hobbs, Funda Bilgic, Laura Hird, Nicola Monaghan and Alistair Gentry. Each issue features the occasional commissioned story, but each month at least two out of three short stories are selected from open submissions. To submit writing to Pulp Net, check the Live Lit page Create section, which carries details of calls for submissions both to here and to other publications. Or just send your best unpublished work. GUIDELINES: Short stories of 1,000-4,000 words can be pasted below (go to Website http://www.writergazette.com/sendstudio/users/link.php?LinkID=1679&UserID=8733&Newsletter=79&List=1&LinkType=Send for the form). If responding to a call for submissions on the Live Lit page, please put 'FAO editor name' in the title field. If you prefer, send an attachment to editor at pulp.net with the theme in the first line of your email text, followed by your name, address and email address. (To avoid bias, contact information will not be passed on to guest editors until their selection has been made). Non-themed submissions will be reviewed and passed to an appropriate editor, where possible.
