queried at ForbiddenFiction
Aug. 31st, 2011 12:55 amI sent a query for "The Band Plays On," a short m/m story. It doesn't end well, but it's quirky and hopefully kind of weirdly touching. It's really the only place I'd think of submitting it. It pushes some boundaries (I think).
To quote the site: ForbiddenFiction is a publisher devoted to writing that breaks the boundaries of original erotic fiction. We aim to provide stories which combine intense sexuality with quality writing and dark themes. Many of the novels and stories we publish would be refused by other publishers because it breaks with convention for aspects such as BDSM, violence, non-consent or age variation. We do not have any content type that is forbidden. If it's a well written erotic story, we'll consider it. In fact, if it violates taboos in some fashion, we are more likely to publish it.
It felt good to send out a query. Now that I've done it, I need to forget about it.
