AN ARMED HEART SUBMISSIONS

Hey, lovely person!


You're here to submit your entry in the An Armed Heart anthology, right?

 

Well, you're in the right place! As with many things, there are some rules and such to go over, so, please read the information below thoroughly as each submission agrees to these terms.

You may be wondering if your story must be focused on Patriot's Day, and the answer is no. You do not have to set it on Patriot's Day, however, you must have a focus and themes of patriotic content. 

​

Unlike the Seize the World anthologies there are no prompts for this anthology.


Submissions close on December 31st so be sure to submit your story before that date.

The release day will be announced at the beginning of 2024.

Please submit your story in a Word doc, Google doc, or PDF file. No other files will be accepted.

If you want to review the rules and all the fun (cough BORING cough) stuff, you will find the rules toward the end of the form!

Only the King James Version Bible may be used as it is in the public domain.

 

Submissions must be through this form, and this form alone. There is no other way to send your submission, and sending your story by email will result in an instant denial.


Compensation for authors will explained upon the stories being chosen.

The stories will be proofread by M.L. Milligan and the publishing team for CDXC Aurora Lux Libri Publishing and final edits will be sent to the author and discussed with the author either in a single doc or the master doc for the anthology, left to the discretion of the full publishing team.

 

We will provide editing; however, it is preferred that the authors' works be as polished and edited as possible, though we will do a final read of each story and our suggestions will be sent before the final manuscript is finished.

All rights are retained by the authors.
