Update on Upside Down: Inverted Tropes in Storytelling
By Monica Valentinelli on Nov 16, 2015 01:15 pm
Hello dear readers!
Today, I’d like to update you on the collection I’m editing with Jaym Gates. Our anthology, which is titled Upside Down: Inverted Tropes in Storytelling, is now open for submissions. The guidelines are listed on the Apex Book Company blog, and the deadline for submissions is December 31, 2015.
If you’d like to read more about this anthology, here are some links for you to read:
Upside Down: Inverted Tropes in Storytelling Announcement – This is the initial announcement for our collection. We plan on launching our Kickstarter early 2016.
Conceptualizing the Upside Down Anthology – I talk about the idea behind this collection, and give you more context for what this book will be like.
Making of an Anthology Submissions Phase – My co-editor, Jaym Gates, discusses the submissions phase of our project.
Anthology Preview in Apex Magazine – In the October issue of Apex Magazine, one of the collection’s stories was featured as a sneak peek of what’s to come. You can read “Super Duper Fly” by Maurice Broaddus online.
At the moment, we are working on wrapping up the details for the core of this collection ahead of the Kickstarter. We want to make sure that all of the details are taken care of before launch, and we’re super-excited! Until next time…
