Hell II: Citizens MATURE CONTENT

A project of James Ward Kirk Publications (see other related projects).

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

About

We are looking for stories and poetry about the citizens of Hell. 1st or 3rd person accounts of what life is like in the underworld. Give us your version of Hell and what goes on there. Are there restaurants and other businesses in Hell? What kind of currency, if any is used in Hell? Does the underworld have a police force? What about government and laws to abide by? We all know there’s plenty of dead celebrities in Hell, let’s not forget about them. Does love still exist in Hell? If so, give us a demonic love story. Let your imagination run wild and feel free to create your own depraved demons and creatures for our entertainment. The bottom line is as long as the story takes place in Hell, we’re interested in reading it.
