Retitled from Far Far Away

Coming in August 2008.

    5/29/08 Update: If you have not received a response by June first, that means your story has made it to the final round of selections. We have a small pool of excellent stories, but the space we have to fill is finite. We have some tough decisions to make. You'll be hearing from us shortly.

    Neverlands and Otherwheres (tenative title) will be a themed print anthology about the worlds that exist alongside our own, unseen, be they on the other side of the looking-glass, in virtual reality, or in the sewers under the city. We especially like slipstream or cross-genre. Also: humor, SF/Fantasy, experimental, and/or surreal. Stories without any element of genre may be considered if they do a fantastic job of making Mundania seem like a foreign world. Elements of horror are fine, but we'd rather you evoke a sense of wonder than dread. Show us what exists just outside of the everyday, and turn what's under our noses into a land far, far away.
