The Beast Under Your Bed: YA Horror

Remember when you were younger and you couldn't wait to snag the next copy of Goosebumps, Fear Street, or read another Christopher Pike book? Remember when Gremlins came out and it was the scariest thing next to the adult "Critters" movie? Or when Tim Burton graced us with the first children's bizarro movie? Those memories are slowly becoming just that...memories. It's time our youth are given another chance to read like we did. "The Beast Under your Bed" specializes in child horror. Up to the pre-teen age, the stories should be filled with enough horror to frighten them, but with an ending to keep them coming back for more. PG writing is a requirement! No cursing or dropping F-bombs. Stories need to be clean of adult content (these will literally be marketed to young kids.) Send in your best creepy, monsters in your closest, vampires outside your window, and Monster land under your bed (Remember the movie with Fred Savage Little Monsters? Epic movie and perfect to show the fear but courage that children have to face their fears.)

3k-10k word count.

Crisp and polished work.

No deadline, ongoing project with multiple volumes.

The Beauty in Darkness Anthology

Dark Moon Rising Publications is now accepting submissions for a compilation of dark poetry and short stories.

Dark poetry is a broad spectrum for a poet. It can be the screaming of the silent mind or the aching of a broken heart. It can be the monsters that crawl from the depths of one's soul or the monsters that crawl from the darkest pit.

We are looking for poems and stories or even artwork that shows the beauty in all things dark. Beauty does exist in the minds and souls of those that feel lost, trapped, or free floating in their own darkness. Let your screams be heard so that all know that even though it is inky black in there, there is some light that shines momentarily allowing you to share your pain, your triumphs, and your words locked deeply away.

Up to 3 poems per submission/ 1 short story per submission/ 3 artwork submissions

No line requirement for poetry/ 3k to 10k for short stories

Word document file for submissions unless artwork is being submitted

At this time, this is for exposure only and no royalties to be paid for submissions.

Dark Moon Rising Publications is now accepting submissions for a compilation of poetry with a specific flare for heartache, heart break, and loss of lovers.

Piece by Piece: An Anti-Valentine's Day Collection 
Poetry and Prose


Do you remember that guy or girl you did everything for? The one you walked on water for, bent over backward for and sacrificed your own happiness to please them... The one who ended up leaving you distraught, numb, and dying on the floor? Revenge of love is the best remedy to soothe your burning soul! Piece by Piece is an Anti-Valentine's Day Collection for poetry. Massacres, heartbreak hotel, obsessive love; the one thing they all have in common: The color red that smears the walls and allays the maniacal laughs of the once dying and broken soul.


Up to 3 pieces
Times New Roman 12 pt font
Deadline: January 1st
Word doc or docx


Must be broken heart themed
