Cosmic Caravans is to be a science fiction anthology aimed at pre-teen readers to be published by new US small press B Cubed Press. Editors Bob Brown, Cheyenne Brown Ockerman, and Nathan Ockerman need stories or poems that reinforce strength of character and show scientific principles in a way children can relate to. Entertain and challenge young, curious readers so they learn more about the universe, life, and the science that makes it all possible.
Submissions should be between 300 and 3,000 words. Your story must be suitable for children - ‘if Star Trek wouldn’t air it, it’s too risky.’ Your submission can be funny, scary, sombre, mysterious, wibbly-wobbly, a thriller, or a fantastical romp through time and space. Just make sure it is clearly underpinned by some clearly explained real science. No fan fiction.
