Coming Together is a registered "voluntary nonprofit association" seeking submissions of erotic fiction, poetry, and art from established professionals as well as amateur/up-and-coming authors, poets, and artists.

ALL print & ebook royalties (author/poet, editor, and artist) are donated to charity.^*

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

• Fresh, original fiction (up to 10K words), poetry, and artwork.
• All pairings & relationship dynamics welcome.
• A "happily ever after" ending is not required. Coming Together wants erotic, not formulaic, material.
• Explicit sex is not required. Eroticism is about far more than Tab A into Slot B.
• No positive portrayals of violent/intolerant behavior (rape, racism, etc.) or illegal fetishes (bestiality, pedophilia, necrophilia). Additional restrictions may exist based upon the publisher's guidelines.
• PLEASE, no simultaneous submissions!
• Reprints are welcome, provided that the submitter holds the rights. Exclusivity is not required.^**

THE NITTY GRITTY:
Due to the rapidly growing volume of submissions, those following the guidelines below are FAR more likely to be accepted.

• Proof all work PRIOR to submission. That means it's not only spell checked, but properly punctuated and thoroughly scanned for homonymic errors (there/their, your/you're, etc.)
• Attach an RTF document (or, for artwork, a JPG) & email to submissions [at] eroticanthology.com or to the address provided on the volume's individual page
• 1" margins all around, no headers or footers
• 12pt Times New Roman font, double spaced
• Indent paragraphs, and do not include an extra line between paragraphs
• At the top of the file, include your pen name, your legal name and mailing address, word count, and website/blog URLs (if available). Optionally, include a BRIEF (150-word) bio.
