The second round of submissions is now officially closed for Negative Space: An Anthology of Survival Horror, and we received some outstanding submissions. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who took the time to write and/or submit a story for review. Although the submission window was relatively short this time around, we still received a whole slew of wonderful stories. We can't wait to read through the slush pile and start adding to our expanding TOC!

As far as a time frame goes, we'll be reading stories over the next two weeks, then making our final selections shortly thereafter. We'll be in touch soon.

Sincerely,

Submissions are now officially closed for Negative Space: An Anthology of Survival Horror. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who submitted a story for review. We received around a 100 submissions, and so far, we are very impressed by the amount of talent on display!

We'll be reading stories non-stop for the next two weeks, then choosing stories for the final TOC. If all goes to plan, I'll be sending out responses by the end of August. If you haven't heard back by September, please get in touch with me through the "contact" section of our website, or through email.

Again, thank you all for your interest in our first anthology. We'll be in touch soon.
