4 Anthologies to Submit Short Stories to
Some submission calls writers should keep an eye on
There are many presses out there publishing anthologies — collections of short stories from different authors. But most are only open for a few weeks or months at a time, and it can be difficult keeping track of which ones writers can currently submit to.

Brigids Gate Press — Gothic Romance
Brigids Gate are looking for gothic romances that are equal parts horror and romance — containing both a creeping sense of dread and a happily ever after (or happy for now) ending. A strong sense of place is necessary, and they want stories from women or non-binary individuals.

Word count: 2,000–6,000 words.
Payment: $0.08 per word.
