🎃 CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS — THREE NEW INTERNATIONAL ANTHOLOGIES 🎃
Fresh Words is pleased to announce three upcoming Halloween-themed international anthologies — each inviting a different form of literary expression.
🕯️ THE THING IN THE DARK
An International Anthology of Micro Fiction
Short. Strange. Unsettling. Unexpected.
Submit micro-fiction exploring darkness, mystery, ghosts, memory, fear, the uncanny, or anything hiding just beyond the light.
📧 Submission: [email protected]
🎭 THE DOOR OPENS AT MIDNIGHT
An International Anthology of Short Plays
What happens when the door opens at midnight?
We invite original short plays that are frightening, funny, absurd, mysterious, supernatural, psychological, or simply unexpected.
📧 Submission: [email protected]
🌙 HAIKU AFTER DARK
An International Halloween Haiku Anthology
Moonlight. Shadows. Autumn leaves. Empty streets. Footsteps. Silence. Ghosts.
We welcome haiku and senryu inspired by Halloween, darkness, nature, mystery and the uncanny.
📧 Submission: [email protected]
✨ OPEN INTERNATIONALLY
✨ NO SUBMISSION FEE
📅 FINAL DEADLINE: 30 OCTOBER 2026
Whether you write micro-fiction, drama, haiku or senryu, there is a place for your voice in our Halloween trilogy.
Bring us something that makes us wonder, shiver, smile—or look twice into the dark.
