Submission Guidelines

I've been asked a number of times what the submission guidelines for the show are. Well the last email that came in today has finally prompted me to make up some "official" guidelines, and here they are.

1. Stories are "preferred" if they are creepy/spooky and Lovecraft like. Also they are preferred if they include elements of the established "Cthulhu Mythos". Again , preferred if set in or around the 1920's.

2. The point aboove is just preferences, not exclusives. For example, the show has run Sci Fi, historic, fantasy and straight forward ghost stories.

3. No swearing in the stories.

4. Please send your story to the email address mentioned in the show.

5. Send your story as an attachment to the email, either Txt, Pdf, Doc or Odt.

6. Please have your attached document include your name, your email address, the stories title, any blurb or links about yourself that you want pimped on the show if your story is accepted. Oh, and the story.

6. I dont want any rights to your story, you keep 'em. I will obviously be podcasting the story, and the podcast will be permanently hosted at "Archive.org"

7. There is no payment for stories, it's done for the love of it, not for money.

8. Dont expect responses to your submission email. I take a long long time to get around to the emails. If you submit it, presume I'm going to use it, unless you hear otherwise.

9. Massive thanks from me to everyone who submits a story :)

10. Can't think of a 10.
