Ravenous Romance (http://www.ravenousromance.com/) has discovered how many readers are interested in quality GLBT erotic romance, and have asked me to put together two anthologies for their Panamour (http://www.ravenousromance.com/panamour.php)section (same-sex romance). I'm really excited about the opportunity.

The concepts of good and evil have fascinated us for millennia. Add in some sex, and we can’t get enough! Let’s see some new twists on this ever-popular theme. Angels with kinks; demons who make us do things we’ve always wanted to. Each story should have angels, demons or both. Preference for m/m pairings, but I’d love to see some hot f/f stories as well and ménage is welcome. I’m looking for erotic romance rather than pure erotica. That means there should be a relationship between the characters beyond merely a sexual one. The sex should have emotion and I want to feel that along with the characters.



Advance queries are welcomed and encouraged. Please mention Absolute Write when querying or submitting your story.



HOW TO SUBMIT -- please read carefully and be sure to include all necessary information or your submission may be returned unread.

Specifics: 3,500 to 10,000 words. Please be sure your submission is free of typos and errors. Polish your story before sending it, please! No rape, underage, incest or bestiality. If you have other content you feel might be questionable, email me for clarification.

Format: send in RTF or Word (no docx), double spaced with no headers or footers.

Terms $10 per story advance against the royalties on ebook sales (and other non-exclusive subsidiary rights) for a period of three years. There is the possibility of an upfront payment rather than royalties, so email me if this is a deal-breaker for you to participate. Royalties are a pro rata share of the 35% on ebooks and 15% on audiobooks. If they sell additional subsidiary rights, additional payments will follow!

To submit, please send an attached document to my gmail address: lynley.editor (lynley.editor@gmail.com). Be sure your name & pseudonym, address, email, word count and a short summary of the story appear on the first page of your attached document (not only in your email). Also please include a 150-word bio suitable for publication with the story.

Feel free to email me with any questions. See my other open calls (http://www.emlynley.com/cfs.html).

This is right up my street. I think I'll be giving this a go.

I have one question, though -- do you accept/consider submissions from writers who aren't in America? I'm in Europe. It might be a stupid question, but I've stumbled across this problem before.

Thanks!
