Så er der igen indkaldelse til en engelsksproget antologi.
Innsmouth Free Press søger noveller til deres kommende SWORD AND MYTHOS antologi.
Jeg lader dem selv forklare konceptet:
Sword and Mythos is an anthology paying professional rates (5 cents per word) looking for short fiction of up to 5,000 words which combines the pulp genres of Cthulhu Mythos and sword and sorcery. This includes any element of the Cthulhu Mythos (creatures such as shoggoths, characters like the King in Yellow, locations like Leng) combined with sword and sorcery (heroic fantasy). Stories can be told from the viewpoint of sorcerers or other non-traditional heroic characters, although fighters with brawn and brains will also be accepted.
There are many famous sword and sorcery male characters, but we’d also like to see women hacking tentacles. Or summoning Mythos creatures.
Det lyder som en god undskyldning til at skrive fantasy pulp, så det driver ned ad væggene. Alle der har læst Bobs Saga ved at jeg har en blødt punkt for fantasykvinder, tentakler og store våben, så det burde ligge lige for.
Desværre er deadline allerede d. 15. februar, så der skal fart på, hvis man vil være med.
