Guidelines

Modern, urban setting in the world of the Cthulhu Mythos. Setting does not have to be a gritty Times Square locale, just no isolated mansions in the middle of nowhere or cabin in the woods type of cliches.

Do not overuse the monsters in the sewers and subways cliche. It can be part of the story but should not be the main focus/location.

This is not a Godzilla anthology. Cthulhu is not going to wake up and destroy Tokyo while getting hit with nukes.

English only. Non-exclusive anthology rights. Reprints and multiple submissions are allowed.  Author retains copyright. Payment is via Paypal.

Pictures can be printed with the story (they will be black and white). Images should be .jpg or .png and 300 dpi is recommended but not necessary. Make sure you have clearance to use the image(s) and send with any necessary copyright information that would need to be listed.

Email your story as an attached .doc file to bitter_venus [at] yahoo.com with Urban Temples of Cthulhu as the subject.
