The Black Garden

Corpulent Insanity Press have just announced a new anthology The Black Garden .

Taken from their guidelines:

Give us your best, most visceral horror tales. They can be surreal, bizarre, morbidly humorous, graphic (think splatterpunk), or any variation in between. All we ask is that they involve the maturation of evil. What does that mean, exactly?

The Black Garden is a metaphor for the underworld. It spawns Satan’s inglorious minions, and tends to them until they are ready to be released. Stories may involve psychotic puppies, mutated babies, or little girls who enjoy disemboweling themselves with corkscrews. That’s up to you. Just remember - they must involve the birth and/or growth of evil.


Word count is 2,000-5,000 words and they pay 1 cent per word.

The deadline is August 1st but it is one of those 'until filled' projects, so get writing like NOW! (I of course will probably ignore this advice and then have a breakdown trying to think of something mid July or will throw somehting at my computer when I see the words 'this anthology is now closed').
