***OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT***

For those who don't keep up with us on Facebook you'll want to hear the good news...

We will be extending the deadline for UNPUBLISHED ORIGINAL STORIES ONLY until midnight pacific time, December 15th, 2011!!! So, if you thought you weren't going to have enough time, think again. That gives you roughly a month! So, make it count and send us your best!

R.J. Cavender joins the team and much more!!!

Things are getting really exciting for the anthology. We're honored and thrilled to introduce you to our newest addition to the team, R.J. Cavender of Cutting Block Press! Late last week he signed on with Horror For Good as Publishing Consultant and we're ecstatic to have him aboard. Also, we've received a ton of submissions and expect to receive many more. Keep 'em coming. We want the best stories we can get! You've got until midnight Pacific time November 30th 2011, so mark your calendars and get those stories in.

And let me also say, the response we've received from established names in the field of horror has been nothing short of staggering! In fact, we just received stories from three legendary horror authors just in the last 24 hours! On top of a number of stoker winning authors we've already received stories from.

Here are some of our amazing contributors in no particular order:

Ray Garton
David Dunwoody
Eric S Brown
Bruce Boston
Michael Colangelo
and many more... look for more names to be announced soon!

In the meantime, happy submitting!

Sorry for the late announcement but a charity and a deadline have been chosen!!!

amfAR is the winner of our charity vote! Therefore all proceeds from this anthology will go to them! Also our deadline has been chosen. Writers, you have until midnight pacific time November 30th 2011 to get your submissions in! Good luck and we look forward to reading your stories!

Only One More Day to Vote!

Tomorrow is the last day to vote for your charity of choice, people, so get your votes in before it's too late! Votes will be tallied and the announcement will be made no later than October 7th. See our prior post for the links to each charity's website. We now have a few new established contributors to announce as well.

I want to assure new or unestablished writers who are interested in submitting their stories that we will consider every story that comes to us regardless of publishing history. We would like to have a good mix of established and unestablished writers in this collection. But most importantly we want the best damn stories we can get in this collection so we can give the charity everyone chooses together the best chance of getting the most money they can! We like to find new favorites just as much as we like having our current favorites contribute.

Also, if you would like to be a slush reader and don't plan on submitting, email us at horrorcharity@gmail.com with the words Slush Reader in the subject.

Thanks and good luck to all those submitting!
