My new book of 69 BDSM erotica stories is out in time for Christmas!

I'm thrilled that my new BDSM erotica anthology The Big Book of Submission, Volume 2: 69 Kinky Tales is out in ebook in time for Christmas and the last day of Hanukkah.

bigbookofsubmission2finalcover

While I'd never recommend anyone release two books in two months if they want to stay sane, I am happy that it's out and available for those who want some hot reading over the holidays and into the new year. With 69 stories, there's a lot of variety and these are very short stories, each 1,200 words or less, so the book clocks in at 376 pages. If you want a teaser of what's in the book, I posted excerpts of all 69 stories at Lady Smut. If you're all, What a hot cover, I love spanking and bondage and power dynamics and can't wait to start reading, you can download it in seconds for:

Kindle (all countries)

Nook

Google Play

iBooks

Kobo

Also my fabulous publisher Cleis Press is hosting a U.S. Goodreads giveaway to win a print copy - enter by tomorrow, December 21!

The Big Book of Submission Volume 2 call for submissions extended

I've decided to extend my call for submissions for The Big Book of Submission Volume 2. If you've already submitted, rest assured your story is under consideration. If you submitted two stories, please do not submit any more, but if you submitted one, you are welcome to submit another one.

I'm adding to the original call below, which is still valid, but right now what I am especially looking for are: stories starring people of color, stories about BDSM and submission in creative settings (especially outside bedrooms and dungeons), stories about people new to BDSM, especially stories about new dominants (but told from the submissive's perspective), stories about less common fetishes, and stories in which submission is used as a tool of personal growth and/or empowerment. Yes, some of these are a lot for a 1,200 word or less story to do, but I have faith that writers can dazzle me with their stories, and I especially encourage those whose work I've never published before to submit. All stories received by the new deadline of February 15, 2017 (11:59 pm EST) will be considered.

Call for submissions
The Big Book of Submission Volume 2 (working title)
Edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel
To be published by Cleis Press in 2018

Please make sure to read and follow these guidelines in order for your work to be considered. Editor Rachel Kramer Bussel is looking for short erotica stories of 1,200 words or less focused on the theme of submission within BDSM. Stories submitted that are over 1,200 words will be rejected. While the word count is short, I want complex stories with a beginning, middle and end, not simply scene snippets.

I will consider stories from a dominant's perspective if that is the best way to illuminate the mindset of the submissive, but they must explore what the submissive gets out of the scenario in some way. The final book of 69 stories will contain an extremely wide variety of characters, POVs (I welcome first, second and third person stories), settings, scenarios, motivations, experience levels, motivations, BDSM practices (which can be combined with other sexual acts), fetishes, couplings, relationships, etc. I welcome the use of sex toys and BDSM implements, real or imagined. All genders and sexual orientations welcome.

All characters must be over 18 for the entirety of the story; no nonconsensual activity, scat, incest or bestiality. No poetry. Original, unpublished stories only. Stories from authors whose work I have not published before are especially welcome. See The Big Book of Submission to get a feel for the types of short submissive erotica I enjoy. Please note that this anthology will not include author bios.

How to submit: Send double spaced Times or Times New Roman 12 point black font Word document (.doc or .docx) with pages numbered OR RTF of 1,200 words maximum to bigbookofsubmission@gmail.com. Stories that are not in keeping with the theme of the anthology or are over 1,200 words will not be considered. DO NOT submit multiple versions of a single story; submit ONLY your final, complete, edited version of your story with the story title and byline you'd want published. Indent the first line of each paragraph half an inch and double space (regular double spacing, do not add extra lines between paragraphs or do any other irregular spacing). US grammar (double quotation marks around dialogue, etc.) required. I will consider a maximum of two stories per author. Include your legal name (and pseudonym if applicable), mailing address. If you are using a pseudonym, please provide your real name and pseudonym and make it clear which one you’d like to be credited as (such as Jane Doe, writing as Ann Smith). You will receive a confirmation within 72 hours. I will get back to you by September 30, 2017.

Payment: $25 and 1 copy of the book on publication in 2018

Deadline: February 15, 2017, 11:59 pm eST
