Editor: Maxim Jakubowski
Publisher: Running Press in USA, Robinson in UK.
Deadline: March 31st, 2013
Payment: £75 per story, which at current exchange rate is approx $118. Rights sought: non exclusive world English language anthology rights

This is the longest-running best short stories of the year anthology. I am seeking submissions of stories previously published, whether in print, digitally or online, during the second half of 2011 AND throughout 2012.

Any length up to 8,000 words. although am NOT into ‘quickies’ (ie under 2000 words or so) unless they are truly exceptional.

As to what I like, my tastes are idiosyncratic, but best refer to any of the previous 17 volumes of The Mammoth Erotica series (there were six unnumbered volumes before we switched to numbering them). I’m broadminded, but tend to prefer strong characterisation and some modicum of plot as opposed to merely mood pieces.

Submit by mail as tear sheets, manuscripts or photocopies (NOT e-mail, please as I cannot face the prospect of reading over a thousand or so submissions on a computer screen). Multiple submissions are OK, but not more than three at a time, please. If I accept your story, I will then require it as Word document at a later date only.
