Science Fiction Submissions Call by Carina Press

Carina Press has announced a submissions call for a new SF anthology. Carina (normally an e-pub only) will even create limited-edition print copies of the anthology to give to the authors. I want to fondle and admire some solid books with my name on it, so I'm busy refining a story to submit!

Here's a summary of the call:

Carina is looking for science fiction novellas with a winter holiday theme, to be published digitally both individually and as a collection in December 2012. The novellas should be from 18,000 to 35,000 words and feature science fiction elements as integral to the novella. The stories do not need to be romance, or even have romance elements, but can be straight science fiction, or science fiction with romantic elements, and can also feature elements of mystery, thriller, horror or other sub-genres. Additionally, there is no set heat level for these stories, so they can have no sex, or be ultra-sexy, or anything in between.

To submit, please send your completed manuscript and synopsis, along with query letter to submissions@carinapress.com by March 15th, 20112. In the subject line, please put SciFi Holiday: Manuscript Title and Author
