Magical Mishaps Anthology

A project of Divertir Publishing (see other related projects).

Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (November 2021). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

Even in a world of magic, problems cannot be solved with a snap of your fingers. Sometimes, it is the magic that works against you. Just as new technology presents new problems, even the best of magical forces can lead to personal disaster. Divertir Publishing will be publishing an anthology of fantasy stories where the magical elements are not quite what they seem, and work in ways that perhaps were not intended. Fantasy elements can be small and subtle or all-consuming. Elements of science fiction can present new problems and possibilities as well. We’re looking for well-written, original, and clever short stories for the modern reader.
