KEVINSWATCH ANTHOLOGY 2017 Contributors guide

Guidelines for submissions for the 2017 Kevinswatch Anthology compilation will be a little different than they have been in the past as it looks like I'm going solo on this one. However I could use assistance if anyone would like to help.

First of all this book is primarily a compilation of the 3 previous volumes of the Kevinswatch Anthology and any new material will be a bonus so the number of new stories will be limited.

Let me remind everyone that this is a collection of original short stories and we can't publish fan fiction of any kind.

You have to be happy with the idea that your story is a gift to the Watch and you will not be monetarily compensated in any way. The only reward will be that your story will definitely be read by someone.

There are no exclusive rights regarding this book. You are free to publish your story elsewhere in any way you choose and have no obligation to the Kevinswatch Anthology other than that which you volunteer freely. This book is for our amusement only.

You will receive full credit for your work in the authors section and table of contents.

When submitting your story please include the name you wish to publish under (in addition to your kevinswatch user name). Your real name is used most commonly however if you have a nom de plume by all means include it.

Depending upon how much interest there is in adding new stories to the compilation will determine how many stories are included. This book is already going to be quite large.

I have to ask that all submissions should be under 20k words. I realize most submissions will be much less than this so no worries.

Submissions need to be sent to thomasallencummins@gmail.com for consideration.

I hope we are able to include at least a few new stories to the new volume.

Thanks.

-Tom

No, we did it for a few years though. Not sure if any of them are still available.

I don't know about anyone else, but I still have my two stories.

I don't have either or my stories. All of the submitting and editing were done with email amounts I no longer have access to. They were saved on devices that I am no longer in possession of.

My copies of the anthologies have been loaned away, to unfortunately never return.
