Best Gay Erotica 2010
Series editor, Richard Labonté; 2010 judge, Blair Mastbaum
Publisher: Cleis Press
Deadline: April 1, 2009

Short stories, novel excerpts, memoirs, narrative artwork, erotic essays - original or reprint - are now being accepted for Best Gay Erotica 2010 (the 15th edition), to be published by Cleis Press in November 2009. Maximum length preferred: 6,000 words; no minimum. Reprints must have appeared in print or online, or been scheduled to appear, between July 2008 and July 2009.

BGE is not a "theme" anthology, so anything goes - any fantasy, all flesh, any kink, every genre - as long as the work is intensely erotic, lusciously literary, and quite, quite queer.

Deadline for submissions is April 1, 2009; 35-40 stories will be selected by series editor Richard Labonte from among the submissions. Winners will be selected from the finalists by this year's judge, Blair Mastbaum, author of two novels - the Lambda Literary Award-winner Clay's Way and Us Ones In Between - and editor (with Will Fabro) of the writers-under-30 anthology, Cool Thing.

Queries and submissions (in doc. format, with author name in the subject line) to: bge2010@gmail.com.
