International Submissions Welcomed: 1853 (paying market: £15 per story)
Deadline: 1 August 2012

1853. The companion volume to A Town Called Pandemonium. Town features ten authors writing about one tiny corner in the American West. But the world is bigger than one small town and 1853 is your chance to build a part of it. We're looking for alternate history adventure tales. A touch of the supernatural is fine by us, but the weirdness shouldn't be the star of the story. The most important thing: your story should take place outside of North America - tell us something we don't know about what's happening in the rest of the world. And, of course, it needs to be set in the year 1853.

1853 will be published as an ebook only, as part of our electronic chapbook series. Submissions should be in doc, docx or rtf format and under 1,200 words. No reprints or poetry. We're paying a flat rate of £15 on acceptance of the final story (plus contributor copies). Our publications are all time-limited, and the books will be removed from sale one year after first publication. First anthology rights only. International submissions are very, very welcome, but stories must be in English.

Please send submissions to jared at jurassic-london.com with [1853] in the subject line. We will endeavour to respond to all submissions as promptly as possible after the submissions window has closed.
