What we are looking for:
We want to see every spectrum of the lycanthrope universe. Werewolves, spiders, tigers, poodles...everythin g! We don't care about gore or explicit situations, but we don't want to see mindless intestine ripping just for gore's sake. We want stories to be well plotted and character driven. If you can find a way to incorporate intestine ripping in there, which helps further the story's development, well by all means fit it in.
Reading time is two weeks for rejections. If we like your story you may not hear back from us right away please be patient. If you have not heard back from us within 3 days acknowledging the receipt of your manuscript please feel free to query us.
