WON’T BACK DOWN – ANTHOLOGY COLLECTION

Won’t Back Down MMA. Jousting Knights. Dueling swordsman. Gladiators. Men and women who have honed their bodies and skills to face off against whatever rivals or challenges come at them. They do it for the money, for the love, or possibly just out of necessity. They aren’t afraid of bruises, blood, and broken bones.

Less Than Three Press is seeking stories about people who aren’t afraid of a fight, whatever their motivation might be.

 

THE DETAILS:

• Stories should be at least 10,000 words and should not exceed approx 30,000 words in length.
• Stories must be LGBTQ (threesomes, etc. are acceptable, but all parties must be the same gender).
• Stories must have a happily ever after (HEA) or happy for now (HFN) end.
• Any sub-genre is gladly accepted: sci-fi, mystery, contemporary, steampunk, etc.

Won’t Back Down is a general release anthology, meaning stories will be sold as a compiled ebook in the LT3 book market.

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED – ANTHOLOGY COLLECTION

Satisfaction Guaranteed — Retail. Food service*. Call centers. Tech support. Delivery. Cleaning services. Taxi driving. Not every job is glamorous and well-paying. Nothing is more grating than getting screamed at, cussed at, spilled on, and talked down to while doing a miserable job just to get the bills paid.

Less Than Three Press is seeking LGBTQ stories about the people working minimum wage hell, exhausting themselves to guarantee satisfaction and make ends meet, always looking for a chance at happiness and satisfaction of their own.

* The editor requests that authors consider food service employment outside of bartenders/baristas as these are commonly explored themes in many contemporary ebooks.
