not sure if i have anything to submit… but lots of good luck for you on this project. 🙂
Thank you!
I would recommend taking a look at “The Moon is Not a Battlefield” by Indrapramit Das from Infinity Wars edited by Jonathan Strahan.
Thank you!
Query: Is this call restricted to stories related to our Moon?
I have a few stories that take place on other moons in our solar system, and I wonder if those could be considered.
Yes, it is restricted to ours.
A few years ago, I edited an alternate history anthology with the story “The Road Was Lit with Moon and Star” by Bruno Lombardi. It took the premise of the Apollo 11 moon landing ending in tragedy, and another crew going up to take that one small step. Bruno and I would both be thrilled if you gave that story consideration.
