LGBT Anthology Competition
Winners will have their short story published in Jupiter Cloud Books' first anthology, which will be available in both print and ebook format on Amazon in early Autumn!
Rules and Guidelines
Deadline to submit: 31st July 2025.
Open to authors worldwide over the age of 18, regardless of whether you have previously published either independently or traditionally.
All genres accepted as long as stories are LGBT themed. This anthology is aimed at adults, but please keep gore or spice to around a 15 age rating at most.
Works can be between 3k and 10k words, but must be a complete story. Works can feature characters from your own existing books (as long as you have full rights to them), but the story must make sense as a standalone.
Absolutely no AI permitted! If it is suspected that AI was used to write your story it will not be considered.
Works must not have been previously published anywhere.
Writers retain rights to their work, but by submitting, you are granting Jupiter Cloud Books a non-exclusive license to publish your story in this anthology if you win. (Unsuccessful submissions will not be kept by Jupiter Cloud Books, neither will your personal data.)
Minor edits may be done during proofreading, such as fixing typos and grammatical errors, but the integrity of the work will be preserved.
It is free to submit to this competition, and several winners will be chosen. Winners will have their work published in the anthology and receive a free ebook copy. (Please note, winners will not receive any financial compensation.)
Writers whose work in included in the anthology will be fully credited within the book and on Amazon and featured on social media etc.
Everyone will be contacted via email some time after the closing date, regardless of the entry's outcome.
