Attention published and aspiring authors!
Special Projects Call for Submissions.
Project #1: Let's Pretend. Anthology-length. $25 advance against standard anthology royalty rate.
Seeking sexy short stories involving role-playing.
- 7k-10k words
- Each story's plot must significantly revolve around sexual role playing. Examples: Longtime lovers pretend they don't know each other, and one "picks up" the other in a bar . . . hero pretends he's a burglar and seduces "the lady of the house" during a robbery . . . heroine pretends she's a French maid and seduces the man of the house. These are just examples. Let your imagination run free. We will consider any role playing scenario that falls within our standard guidelines, as long as it is presented within a loving relationship and the story is well written.
- Multiple submissions are accepted, but an author may only appear once in any given NRP anthology.
- Deadline for submissions is open.
Project #2: Call for Submissions - Lesbian anthology-length stories - 5,000-7,500 words. Noble Romance Publishing is seeking highly erotic lesbian-themed romance stories in all sub-genres for an upcoming anthology. Paranormal, historical, futuristic, fantasy, contemporary, suspense, comedy or combinations thereof. Be creative. Think big. Think different. Think kink. Send your submissions to submissions@nobleromance.com. Please use Lesbian Erotic Romance as your subject line.
- Multiple submissions are accepted, but an author may only appear once in any given NRP anthology.
- Deadline for submissions is open.
Please note: Previously published authors may sell on proposal (query and synopsis). Include your publishing credits in the body of your email. All others please submit your complete manuscript to submissions@nobleromance.com. Put the words "Special Project Submission" in your email's subject line.
Project #3: Call for Submissions - Sweet or slightly sensual Holiday/Christmas stories. Anthology-length - 5,000-7,000 words. Noble Romance is seeking sweet to slightly sensual stories for our upcoming holiday anthology. These stories are different from our usual fare, so please read carefully:
1. No explicit sex scenes. You can include a "bedroom" scene if you like, but think more along the lines of how they'd portray this on a made-for-television movie. Kissing, cuddling -- skip ahead -- afterglow. ;-)
2. Stories do not necessarily have to be Christian/Christmas. We'd like to see the other religious holidays, such as Kwanzaa and Hanukkah represented, too.
3. Conoversely, these stories do not need to carry *any* religious theme, and may be focused more on holiday family traditions, etc.
4. Focus on the romance and the plot. We're looking for great, heartwarming stories that portray the spirit of the holiday season.
5. Any/all sub-genres or a mix thereof. HEA or HFN endings.
- Multiple submissions are accepted, but an author may only appear once in any given NRP anthology.
- Deadline for submissions is November 1, 2009.
