Payment: $60/story and 2 copies of the book on publication
Earlier submissions are truly welcome as I work on the books on a rolling basis so there's more space at the beginning than near the end, though all stories submitted by the deadline will be considered. Frat Boys is open to gay male authors only for this anthology. I’m not accepting reprints.
Editor Shane Allison is looking for er0tic stories that cater to the theme of frat b0ys. I have always wondered what goes on behind the closed doors of a frat house filled with young college boys. Surely, you have too. So for this anthology, let your frat fantasi3s ooze out on the page. I’m not just looking for scenarios of naive pledges going through tawdry ritual hazing, or drunken one nights stands during a kegger, but stories that take the frat b0y out of his comfort zone. I am looking for h0t plots and even h0tter character development. Don’t shy away from new er0tic territory. Creativity and diversity of story lines are key. This book is geared toward a gay male audience.
How to submit: Send double spaced Times or Times New Roman 12 point black font Word document with pages numbered (RTF) of 1,500 to 5,000 words. Indent the first line of each paragraph half an inch and double space (regular double spacing, do not add extra lines between paragraphs or do any other irregular spacing). US grammar (double quotation marks around dialogue, etc.) required. Include your legal name (and pseudonym if applicable), mailing address, and 50 word or less bio in the third person to fratboysanthology@gmail.com. If you are using a pseudonym, please provide your real name and pseudonym and make it clear which one you’d like to be credited as.
