What I’m looking for: I'm looking for splatter military stories. Everything from monsters, zombies, projects gone wrong, battles with the paranormal, and invaders from space. All time periods are welcome, from medieval to the far future. Special Forces or conventional forces. Heavy emphasis on the action!

**Important note: This will be a blind and unbiased acceptance process. A third party will be the only person who has access to the submission emails. If your submission meets all basic guidelines and formatting requirements, they will send me the story without an author name attached. We will be using a numbers system to keep track of authors and manuscripts. If I decide to accept the story into the anthology, only then will they provide me with the author’s name. If I don’t accept the story, I will never know who wrote it. This ensures that I won’t be choosing submitted stories based on friendships or favoritism. Instead, stories will make it into the anthology based on merit alone. Please do not message me asking if I’ve read your submission. I won’t know if I’ve read your submission unless it gets accepted.
If any requirements or guidelines are ignored, if your manuscript is sent to the incorrect email address, or if I get excessive messages asking if I’ve read your story - your submission will be automatically rejected without being read.
