Now, this looks interesting... Fledgling press, but it's a very tempting market. "This dark collection of macabre war tales will showcase the very best bloodcurdling short stories in the field of historical horror from talented new voices, as well as featuring a comprehensive overview of the military-horror genre by examining the works of acclaimed writers including Ambrose Bierce, Edgar Allen Poe, Kim Newman, Harry Turtledove, Connie Willis, F. Paul Wilson, James Herbert, JRR Tolkein, Graham Masterton, Dan Simmons and Stephen King. We want to see exciting and original horror short fiction of between 3000 and 9000 words, set around warfare or conflict, or featuring war as a central theme." $50 per accepted story, but only the editor's favourite three stories will get a print contributor's copy in addition to the payment - everyone else gets a digital version. Still, historical horror and war. What's not to like? I'm gonna prime my cannon for this one...back to the English Civil War I go. www.warofthewordspress.com/weird-war-anthology.html
