Cornish Short Stories: A Collection of Contemporary Cornish Writing
We are pleased to announce open submissions for a new collection of short stories by writers living in Cornwall, to be published in 2018 by The History Press. The editors are Emma Timpany and Felicity Notley.
You may submit short stories via the Submissions page.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Submissions are open until 7 July 2017
We are inviting short stories of between 2,000 and 6,000 words in length. Exceptional work that falls outside this range may also be considered.
All entries must be the author's own work and should not have been published anywhere, in print or online. The stories must have a Cornish setting and the author must be Cornish or resident in Cornwall. Stories for children are not suitable for this publication.
Although our publisher is The History Press, this is a call for contemporary writing and the stories do not have to be 'historical' in any way - although that may be the approach you choose to take.
Within these guidelines, we would encourage you to make full use of your creative freedom and embrace a wide range of subject matters, literary styles and genres (literary fiction, crime fiction, historical fiction, sci-fi etc.) We are simply looking for the very best new writing.
