Long Hidden Anthology Series A project of Crossed Genres Publications (see other related projects). Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive. About Most written chronicles of history, and most speculative stories, put rulers, conquerors, and invaders front and center. People with less power, money, or status—enslaved people, indigenous people, people of color, queer people, laborers, women, people with disabilities, the very young and very old, and religious minorities, among others—are relegated to the margins. Today, mainstream history continues to perpetuate one-sided versions of the past while mistelling or erasing the stories of the rest of the world. There is a long and honorable legacy of literary resistance to erasure. This anthology partakes of that legacy. It will feature stories from the margins of speculative history, each taking place between 1400 and the early 1900s and putting a speculative twist—an element of science fiction, fantasy, horror, or the unclassifiably strange—on real past events. Thanks to the success of our Kickstarter campaign, Long Hidden will include about 30 stories, or about 150,000 words. The anthology will be released in trade paperback and DRM-free digital formats in the first quarter of 2014.
