Transgressive Anthology... SUBMISSION CALL: "Writings On The Wall"
This one is for all you Chuck fans out there. Seven Archons is collecting stories for their first anthology of transgressive fiction. See the guidlines below.
OPEN SUBMISSON:
What if your identity was a prison and self-destruction was your freedom? For "Writings on the Wall", we're looking for original transgressive tales involving highly developed characters who are nihilistic, anti-social, and seemingly mentally ill. These characters should feel out of touch, not only with themselves, but with the world around them. Give us your grittiest, unbound fiction. Stay to the point, but nothing is off limits. However, keep in mind we do want quality writing. If it is purely for the sake of shock value, it will be rejected.
Deadline: July 1
Please submit in:
Rich Text Formatting
12 Pt. Courier
Underline Italics
1 Space After Punctuation
Double Spaced
Please, No Auto-formatting
Most genres are acceptable. However, we don't want erotica or romance (Unless it is a SERIOUSLY flawed relationship)
Word count is 2,000 to 5,000
No previously published stories
No multiple submissions
No simultaneous submissions
First North American Serial Rights
Considering this is our first project (and funded out of pocket), unfortunately are only able to pay in the form of exposure.
We hope to offer pay for our next anthology.
Send submissions to sevenarchons@gmail.com
In the subject line, Submission: Story Title/ Last Name/ Word Count
Please, do not query before 30 days after the deadline.
Also, join our forum over at www.sevenarchonspress.lefora.com
Thanks, D.G.
This is on my to do list. How extreme or unsubtle for a disorder are you looking?
You look like the type of guy / gal, who would like:
So long as the behavior is integral to the plot, and not solely for shock value, we want the wildest fiction you can come up with.
If you are writing for this, only two weeks left!
Last day for submissions! Polish those stories and send 'em in!
I just saw your post, I am new to this group. Would you still look at a submission?

Read it, love it, review it!
Just as an aside, how many years does someone have to be here before they are no longer "new"?
Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.
My story "20% Off" is in this anthology. And the artwork is killer. Hope you guys snag a copy.
Just a reminder... less than a month to submit a story for this anthology. I know some of you have some Chuck-inspired fiction. Bring it on!
