SUBMISSIONS TO DARK MOON BOOKS & DARK MOON DIGEST

We will not be accepting submissions during December 2011. Please save your submissions until after the first of the year. Thanks to everyone who has submitted. This includes short stories, flash fiction, novellas and novels. The only exception to this is entry to any of our ongoing writing contests.

We will also be closed to submissions of all types (except contest entries) during the month of March 2012 in preparation for the World Horror Convention in Salt Lake City.

If you are interested in writing for Dark Moon Digest, we strongly encourage you to purchase an issue to see what kinds of stories we are inclined to accept. We receive hundreds of submissions each month and only select 8 to 12 for our publication every quarter. If you want to make it in, you should get to know us a little better. You can easily purchase a copy at Amazon and most other online bookstores. (Stories submitted to Dark Moon Digest may also be considered for our monthly e-magazine, Dark Eclipse or for one of our anthologies.)

For fans of Araminta Star Matthews' zombie apocalypse novel, here is some great news. Matthews will be writing a 4-part serial paraquel to Blind Hunger beginning with Issue #6 of Dark Moon Digest. "The Warehouse" will tell the story of Sage's friend, Amanda, and how she and her friends manage to secure themselves in the warehouse--the very same warehouse to which the crew of Blind Hunger is fleeing at the end of the novel. Will it still be there when they arrive? Just another great reason to look forward to future issues of Dark Moon Digest. And, if you haven't read Blind Hunger yet, check it out. It is available at most online bookstores including Amazon and Barnes & Noble. (Kindle and Nook versions are also available.)

Dark Moon Presents: Zombies!, Dark Moon Presents: Ghosts! and Dark Moon Presents: Vampires! are all now available. Each issue showcases the winning entries in the various contests Dark Moon has sponsored over the past few months plus other great tales. In addition to great cover art, when you place all three books side-by-side, the back covers will create a unique panoramic work of art by Claire Beard.
