Send us your deepest, darkest poetry and prose
Submission Guidelines
-
An erotic collection exploring female desire through the lens of darkness, in all its forms.
-
We welcome short stories (up to 4,000 words), poetry (up to 60 lines), and flash fiction (up to 500 words) that center female desire and sexuality. You can submit up to three pieces across any combination of those formats.
-
Darkness is yours to interpret broadly. It might be atmospheric, physical, moral, or something else entirely. We want work that weaves sensuality into the shadows, whether that's a forbidden romance, a BDSM dynamic, or a setting that comes alive at night. Sweet or wicked - we want to read it.
-
Submit through the portal below. Your submission should be a single Word doc or PDF containing your work, a working title, and your name as you would like it written in the anthology. Please save your file as your full name.
-
We're not able to offer monetary payment for our inaugural anthology, but you'll be fully attributed, professionally edited, and you retain your rights, with first anthology publication rights going to the press.
-
We don't publish work depicting underage characters in sexual contexts, non-consensual acts, incest, bestiality, or fetishized violence without narrative purpose, and we don't accept AI-generated work in any capacity.
