The Darkness Within A project of Indigo Mosaic Publishing (see other related projects). Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive. About No about statement available. Country of Publication United Kingdom Publication Medium & Frequency Print Publication Print PublicationOne-time publication Fiction Closed Your story may be set in any time and in any place. The darkness within can be within a person, within a place or anything you can dream up that fits the theme. It could be the darkness inside a mind, or inside a ping-pong ball; within a universe or within an atom. The theme is a common one, so I would be more inclined towards stories that are 'outside the box'. Not too heavy on the gore or on "intimacies" in your stories please. No child abuse. Horror is good, fantasy is good, sci fi is good, the genre is yours to choose as you will.
