Static Movement presents Powers: A superhero anthology. Edited by Jay Faulkner.

Seeking original, previously unpublished stories of superheroes. This can be pure comic-book style heroes, sci-fi, fantasy, horror, etc but the central theme / characters in the story MUST involve superheroes. Fan-fiction is not suitable so no stories set in Gotham or Metropolis, thank you.

Submissions guidelines:

Word count between 2500 and 8000. If you have something longer then please query first (email: powers@imadethat.org). Send as attachment only (don’t embed into the email) as .doc or .rtf only. Please put the following in the email subject: Powers / Surname / Title of story

Submissions should be sent single spaced, indent paragraphs, no embedded text, no headers or footers. Font should be Georgia size 12.

Please put your name, address and email at the top left of the first page. Please put the title, byline (how you want your name to appear if accepted for publication) and word count at the top right of the first page. Please include a bio of up to 150 words AFTER your story.

This is a ‘for exposure’ only anthology and, as such, there will be no payment made to contributors. Email submissions and questions to: powers@imadethat.org
