Theme: Lab whump. For this anthology, we’re looking for whumpy stories that involve a laboratory. Maybe your whumpee is a lab rat. Maybe they’re on the run from the ethically questionable organization that has been holding them prisoner. Maybe the whumpee has finally flipped the script on their whumper. As long as a lab is incorporated into the story in some way, it counts!
We take a broad view of whump- it can be physical or emotional. Your stories can be hurt no comfort or comfort no hurt, just as long as they touch on whump in some way.
Absolutely no fanfiction of copyrighted works. No stories written by AI.
No explicit torture of children under the age of 13, no sexual content involving characters under the age of 18, no torture or sexual content involving non-sentient animals.
Deadline: July 31, 2024
If your story is accepted, we ask for nonexclusive, worldwide, English language publication rights for ebook and paperback.
