What are Bites?

Bites are collections of two short, short stories with an underlying theme running throughout both stories. Whether that theme is the same protagonist name for both stories, two vampire stories, two stories set in the Old West, two... You get the picture. The only difference is their length. Both stories combined can be no shorter than 6,000 and no longer than 8,000. So, if one story is 1,500 words, the second must be 4,500 words or more, but cannot exceed 6,500 words. All the same Freya’s Bower submission guidelines apply.

All mini e-books accepted for publishing by Freya's Bower will be subject to editing. If you are not open to suggestions and/or recommendations, do not submit. However, we will keep British quotes and spelling provided it is consistent throughout the work.

Send your publication history, if any (all writers welcome), and 500-word writing sample to submit@freyasbower.com and type "Bites Based On A Prompt" in the subject line.

Come on! Let’s see if you’ve got what it takes to craft a new world with new people base on a mere idea!
