Fairy Tale Transformations Anthology

A project of Fantasia Divinity Publishing (see other related projects).

Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (September 2018). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

Many fairy tales have some kind of transformation in it, be it physical or emotional. A peasant turns into a princess, a frog a prince, an old hag a beautiful enchantress, or vice versa. Maybe a once selfish princess learns a hard lesson and transforms into a queen to be proud of, or a naive girl has to grow up much too quickly. These are the stories we are looking for. We want to see stories focus on a character's transformation, whatever it may be. The transformation must take place to either the main character or someone very close to them that appears throughout the entire story. Submissions with a minor character transformation will not be accepted, we want this to be the focus. You may give a brief explanation of your character's transformation in your submission email (especially in cases of emotional transformations), but we would like it to be pretty self-evident.
