Calling all authors! We're currently looking for stories set in August onwards for our weekly, and from late autumn onwards for our Specials. We're also now ready to read Advent and Christmas stories to feature across all 'Friend' publications. All genres and word counts!





Our submissions page has been updated and the next anthology window announced. We'll be taking submissions for "Lighthouses 2", an anthology of mystery, suspense, and horror set in lighthouses, in October and November. Get writing, keepers! blackbeaconbooks.blogspot.com/p/submissions.…
