Evergreen: Tales of Winter Shadows

A project of Speculation Publications (see other related projects).

Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (September 2024). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

Your unique, fictional stories of the dark and stillness and what light brings out of the shadows. Stories of transformation. Stories of cold forests, elves and magickal places. Stories of witch magick, the occult and ghosts. We want modern retellings of Yaldā, Soyal, Roman Saturnalia or the Dongzhi Festival. Stories of the winter solstice, Bodhi Day, Diwali, Hanukkah, Christmas, Omisoka, and Kwanzaa. Look into your ancestral roots and tell us about the long dark nights and short, but bright, days of light your ancestors endured, and tell us how they made it through.
