Submissions for Swords & Sorceries: Tales of Heroic Fantasy Volume 11 will open on the 1st October 2025 and end at midnight of the 31st, with publication scheduled for late November. Please don't send any submissions till then.
 Payment is £25 per story plus one contributor's copy of the paperback. The book will be published as a paperback and ebook. Please send your submissions as attachments (doc, docx or rtf) headed   "Submission - Swords & Sorceries 11"  to:

paralleluniversepublications@gmx.co.uk

Please send only one submission  at a time - the one you consider the best fit for us. 

Although we like original stories we are always more than happy to consider reprints. Just let us know where and when it was previously published. 

You can send in simultaneous submissions, but let us know if your story is accepted elsewhere as soon as possible. Bear in mind you will receive either an acception or rejection by the end of the first week in November.

There is no limit on the size of submissions.  

There is absolutely no need to tell us anything about yourself as the only thing that matters is the story. Everything else is irrelevant. We will ask for details about yourself if your story is accepted. 

All rejections and acceptances will be sent by email by the end of the first week in November. Please don't enquire about your submission before then.

And good luck!

In the past we have received a number of stories that may be fantasy but are not swords and sorcery. If you are unsure what swords and sorcery is, you could get a better idea by checking out volumes 1 - 10. Saying that, swords and sorcery is a broad genre and we are more than willing to consider stories that stretch its limits, as we have in the past.
