James Rasmussen writes that “QueeredFiction is a start up small press publisher that will focus on the Gay, Lesbian, & Bisexual Genre [sf/f/h] market. We will begin publishing in 2009, delivering Fantasy, Science Fiction, and Horror with strong Queer content, characters, and genre elements. Most of all, we intend publishing great QueeredFiction.
“No one steps out of the closet in a day. QueeredFiction is a new born queer small press publisher and we’re making our first steps into the world to claim our own vibrant place in the genre GLB niche market. We intend to publish between four and eight titles in 2009, in both eBook and Paperback formats.”
They’re currently reading or their first anthology, Queer Wolf, and looking for “contemporary, urban fantasy set within a fiction city centering on a community of queer werewolves.” They want stories between 4,000 and 10,000 words, but are offering only a cut of royalties, nothing up front. The reading period is currently open, and closes 30 November 2008. For more information, see this page.
