Pitches & Ominous Whispers
Updates from Associate Editor K.R. Wieland
Hello all,
I’m excited to share some news! Our favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy Pitch Event is happening this Thursday on Twitter, and we at Quill & Crow will be watching and looking for stories. We will have our submission information for #SFFpit pinned so you know how to send us your work should we like your pitch. We are looking forward to taking part in this event and seeing all your dark fantasy pitches!
If you’re not participating on Thursday, but still have a finished novel, I have more good news! We will be opening back up for Novel Submissions on March 1st. For submission guidelines, and to ensure that your story is a possible fit, please be sure to have a look at our Submissions Page.
Eros & Thanatos: An Anthology of Death & Desire is here! This collection is filled with diverse and inclusive tales for everyone to enjoy. We are so thankful to our readers for buying up this book. Another huge thank you to all the authors for providing such amazing stories. We encourage everyone to share a photo or a review, and tell us what you love about this collection. Hearing from our readers helps us improve!
The February issue of The Crow’s Quill is still live, as are all our past issues. As always, if you are interesting in submitting a short story to the magazine, be sure to check out our Submissions Page. March submissions are currently closed, but we are accepting stories for April with the theme of Renewal/Rebirth. Be on the lookout for Issue #8 coming March 1st.
Our Dark Poetry Blog is back and we are excited to once again share our words. These poems are written by some of our Crow Calls poets who want to offer more than the daily prompts with you. February’s Broken Hearts is available now, and March will be up on February 28th with the theme of Betrayal.
For all those who follow us on Twitter and Instagram, you may have a seen a sneak peek recently of another book cover. While I can’t tell you all the details yet, I can say it is going to be an epic collection of dark and Gothic tales. Join us on Instagram for a live where we might be discussing it, plus an opportunity to nab one of our titles for free!
Much love from my Little Black Heart,
K.R. Wieland
