Authors Christopher G. Nuttall and L. Jagi Lamplighter are co-editing a volume of stories about life at magic school to be called Fantastic Schools.
We are looking for submissions of stories dealing with any aspect of life at a magical school. School life, extracurricular activities, teachers’ trials, life as a magical custodian—this is your chance to explore beyond what has appeared in your favorite magical school, be it Hogwarts, Roke, Whitehall, or more.
The Fantastica Schools anthology is intended for a YA and general audience. Stories do not need to be directed at a YA audience, but story content should be appropriate for both teen and adult readers.
Magic schools must be original to the author or used with the author’s expresse permission. No unauthorized fan fiction will be accepted.
Please query with your story idea, so to avoid too many stories on the same exact topic.
Word count: 3000 to 12,000 (for longer stories, inquire.)
Payment: Authors will receive equal shares of 55% of profits.
