Title: What Happens in the Tavern Stays in the Tavern
The word “fantasy” evokes many different responses in people, but the most common is the idea of the epic fantasy quest. Tolkein stands as the progenitor of this subset of fantasy novels, and since his time many highly regarded authors have taken up the challenge and have provided readers with elaborate, fantastic worlds filled with perilous journeys and creatures to excite our imaginations. But haven’t you ever wondered what happens behind the scenes, during the downtime the authors gloss over? Studies show that people under stress and threat have more sex, not less. For this anthology, we want writers to tackle the pauses and interstices in a fantasy quest. What kinds of steamy adventures happen behind the scenes, when our heroes and heroines are trekking along their journey? Give us the peek behind the curtains we’ve all been waiting for.
Guidelines: Original characters and universes only, please. Writers and characters may be of any gender or orientation.
Length: Minimum length approximately 2500 words. For this anthology, we will consider stories up to 20,000 words in order to ensure that authors have sufficient room to stretch their epic fantasy legs a little, providing setting, character development, and reasonably detailed (and sexy!) sex scenes.
Deadline: July 1, 2011.
How to submit: Jennifer Levine will be editing this anthology. All submissions must be made via email to jlevineeditor@gmail.com.
