The most merciful thing in the world... is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.”
H P Lovecraft
Dark Minds Press is now open for submissions for their second anthology, Darker Minds, to be published early in 2012.
We’re looking for submissions of between two and eight thousand words of dark fiction on the loose theme of “the power of the mind”.
How you choose to interpret this is entirely down to you but we’re looking for tales that will disturb and horrify.
Please e-mail your submissions to mail@darkmindspress.com formatting your story in .doc or RTF format. Manuscripts should be double spaced, 12pt Times New Roman and use Italics, Bold or Underline as required. Please also supply a brief biography which will be included in the book if you are successful.
Payment is a flat rate of £10, on acceptance by Paypal, plus a contributor’s copy of the book.
Closing date for submissions is January 31st 2012

Received the first submission for Darker Minds, and if it is indicative of the quality we are going to get then selecting the best dozen stories is going to be mighty difficult!
