Since I’m no longer with Samhain, I’ve deleted this call. If you want to submit an angel or demon story to me, I’d love to see them, any length, any heat level. It broke my heart to leave this anthology behind. You can send them to me at Quartet Press: submissions@quartetpress.com
About Me
There is nothing worse than writing a bio. And writing one for your blog sidebar? Blech. Maybe you landed here via Google, followed me from Twitter (does that make you a stalker?) or maybe we met at a conference or you clicked a link from a comment I made at a blog you visited. Hopefully whatever I said didn't make you so mad you came looking for a picture to throw darts at (yep, that's me up above, in my favorite cowboy hat) but instead drove you to find out more about the amazingly witty and intelligent person behind the amazingly witty and intelligent comment.
However you found me, who you found is Angela James, executive editor of Carina Press, Harlequin's new digital-first press. I'm passionate about digital publishing, my mission is to drag people to the digital dark side, one reader (and author) at a time. I'm also Brianna's mommy. At my blog you'll get an odd mix of personal and professional posts about parenting, publishing, books, cooking, sewing and life in general. Come back often, comment frequently and go green—buy ebooks!
Please note that this is my personal blog and my opinions are neither that of Harlequin, nor representative of their opinions.
Oh cool!
I am super excited about this one!
Wow, this sounds like fun! I will get writing.
Can I ask – are stories meant to be themed around love too? You say ‘love could be waiting for them all’, but mention that the only requirment is that it involved angels/demons. You mentioned ‘heat level’, so are they meant to be erotic?
Sorry if I’m being bit dense – just want to be sure before I start writing.
Thanks
Sophie
Sophie: we’re a romance publisher so we only publish books that either are romances, or in the case of fantasy/urban fantasy have romantic elements at the very lease.
Ah, ok. Thanks. Sorry for my ignorance! I followed this link via twitter. For some reason I thought you were a horror publisher, but I must have got that idea from somewhere else!
It’s a sign!! November 1st is my anniversary. So excited about this!
Can you enter this if you already have another novel submitted to Samhain? (just regular submissions, not demons/angels?)
Yes you can. We consider anthology calls “special” calls and make an exception to the no double submission rule.
Great!
Thanks for sharing this!
I may have something for this. Thank you for sharing the information.
How fantastic. This submission call makes me want to forward this to others and submit my own work. And the fantastic concept makes me want to read the yet to be created book. NOW!
Is Samhain still accepting them, though? I’ve just hit the halfway point in writing it when I saw this, and since Quartet is no more, I’d still love to submit it somewhere.
