Editors: Timothy J. Lambert and R.D. Cochrane. Publisher: Cleis Press.
For the anthology BEST GAY ROMANCE 2014, we’re looking for short stories (maximum 6,500 words) about men falling in love, being in love, having loved. The wooing and the winning, the blush of a crush, the details of a date, the rush of romance, as long as the emphasis is on romance.
Original stories, please. Payment $50 to $75 plus two contributor copies. Multiple submissions are okay in .doc or .rtf; include real name, pseudonym, address, and a 50-word bio, to bgromance2014@gmail.com
Is it okay if the story is Young Adult (17/18 year olds), or does it need to be Adult?
If that’s your strength, then young adult would be the way to go. Yes, please.

Hi Timothy,
I have only just found out about this about a week ago! Can I send a submission? I’m from the UK?

Hi, Antony.
It’s not April 2 yet, so yes, please do submit a story. We accept submissions worldwide.
Looking forward to reading your story.
Best,
Timothy.
Hi Timothy,
Thanks for the reply. I am baring in mind what I write so that I can make sure it is transferable to the US reader (e.g. omitting location names, etc.).
I’m currently working on a story for submission (that hopefully will be finished in time!), but have had lots of ideas for the “gay romance” theme. I so hope this book is a huge success and becomes an annual thing!
Antony
