NEW from Sirens Call Publications:
Bellows of the Bone Box: A Steampunk Anthology

The Steampunk and Horror genres are masterfully combined in the twelve stories contained within Bellows of the Bone Box. Each of the authors has transported you to an age where steam is the dominate means of power and has woven a tale that will fascinate, or possibly scandalize you.
In this volume, you will find clockworks, pneumatic tubes, airships, and leather worn out of necessity - not vanity. Can an engine be powered by human blood; should it be? What about body modification; what happens when the mechanical meets the biological and goes awry? Does the heart rule the machine, or does the machine consume the humanity that once existed within it? What of airships, regeneration, or hallucination; is it safe to trifle with such things? Should technology that can rift time and dimensions be researched; and if that research proves fruitful, should it ever see the light of day?
Packed full of intrigue, imagination, and horror, lovers of Steampunk will have a hard time deciding which of the twelve is their favorite!
Contributing Authors:
Brad Bass, Paul Boulet, Laura Brown, Vivian Caethe, Alex Chase, Megan Dorei, O.M. Grey, Tarl Hoch, Gavin Ireland, Kirk Jones, Kate Monroe and Christofer Nigro.

OPEN SUBMISSION: Anthology

FEAR: Of the Water

Not afraid of the water, are you? Maybe you haven't thought about what might be down there... Write us something original; tell us what is so terrifying about two Hydrogen atoms bonded to one Oxygen atom forming a single molecule. Should we be afraid of the water itself, or what it might be hiding below its surface? Shallow murky depths, clear hot springs that are deceptively deep, or underground caverns holding secrets yet to be discovered.
Think about it. Don't just spin an average yarn - we want the reader to wonder if the next time they dip their toes into the water, it be their last.
The series is called FEAR, that should fairly well define the parameters, and remember - we publish fictional tales, not scientific journals.

Accepting Submissions: April 1, 2013 - May 20, 2013
Word Count minimum: 4,000 words - nothing less will be reviewed; no reprints considered.

The Bug Issue - Issue #09
It's an infestation!
No, really - the June 2013 issue of The Sirens Call eZine will be infested with nothing but BUG stories because that's all we're accepting this time! Since creepy crawlies come in many shapes and sizes, make sure your story has at least six legs to stand on.
Horrify us but don't imagine the bug; your story must revolve around an insect of minuscule or mutated proportions that could be found in nature.
