ANTHOLOGIES INVITING SUBMISSIONS
Blue Planet Press
Blue Planet Press specialises in speculative fiction anthologies, writes PDR Lindsay-Salmon.
Currently the editorial team seek submissions to the anthology Far Futures Book Four of short stories, 6,000 to 10,000 words which explore the colonial possibilities of Titan. Titan is the largest moon of the planet Saturn and second in size only to Jupiter’s moon, Ganymede. With an atmosphere, ice, and stable bodies of liquid, Titan is often described as a moon-planet and it is said it may be more viable for colonization than Mars. The team want stories about how to settle there, how to adjust to long-term effects of a gravitational pull even less than Earth’s own moon. Stories must involve space travel in some form to Titan, exploration and/or colonization of Titan, and/or long-term habitation of Titan. Military SF, company military rivalry, gangs and space mercenaries, all are possible.
