The Heart of a Devil Anthology A project of Fantasia Divinity Publishing (see other related projects). Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (August 2017). We provide the following information as an archive. About For this anthology, we want glimpses into the world of those we love to hate. Monsters, demons, murderers, etc. Are they as evil as they seem? What made them do those horrible things? What was their breaking point? Were they good once or has their heart always been black? A broader take on the fairy tale villains anthology. Any time period and sub-genre are accepted, however there must be a villain/bad guy as the focus of your story. Villains may be taken from fairy tales, mythology, folklore, monster legends, history, or entirely original.
