As you may be aware, I and a number of other authors have been publishing
Fantastic Schools - a collection of novellas and short stories with a overall theme of magical education. A handful of those collections have been centred on a smaller theme – Staff, Sports, Middle Schools, Holidays - and the latest of those collections is
War.
The only real rule is it has to have something to do with magical education. You can write a story about a United States Mage Corps training platoon that runs into very real trouble, if you like, set in a universe very much like ours, or a story set in a much more fantastical universe; you are welcome, if you wish, to set a story in one of your own universes (the original idea behind the collection was to introduce writers to a number of different authors and their works) and if you do so you can also plug your own work.
In general, we want stories between 3000 and 10’000 words, although we can be flexible on such matters. Stories are professionally edited; profits are shared equally amongst the writers; we want exclusive publication rights for one year, following publication, then you will be free to republish however you like.

We prefer to see a query first, so we do not get too many stories on a single topic, so please email the address on the page with your story suggestion. Please use
Fantastic Schools Wars as the subject.
Thank you
