Yes! The IndieGoGo campaign is still open for a little while longer.

Three short comics totaling about thirty pages, and eleven short stories, which is a major increase in content from the first issue. To find out more I suggest you check out the pre-order campaign on IndieGoGo.

Thanks to the many lessons learned with Issue #1, I expect Issue #2 to ship on Monday October 2nd.

Yes! It is an addon option through the issue #2 campaign, and direct sales later in the year.

Right now! Please look for a tracking number if you`re concerned about your shipment.

- Submissions are currently closed, but please feel free to look over the general guidelines to prepare for issue #4, which will begin in November.

- I will be looking to have a broad variety of styles and genres.

- All content must be original and previously unpublished.

- Works should be completed. Editorial support will be available through ANVIL, but it should not be a necessity.

- I am not looking for any content that is primarily religious, political commentary, erotic romance, or detailed, graphic violence or sex. If you are not sure what qualifies, send an email.

- Short stories between 2,000 and 8,000 words.

- Compensation will be $0.02 per word, as submitted.

- Although we consider all submissions, we are less likely to consider stories that are not entirely stand alone, fail to fall within the word count, or are written in present tense.

- Comics ideally between 5 and 20 pages.

- Compensation will be determined on a case by case basis, but will generally fall between $250 and $1,000. Your submission should include your desired price.

- Your submission should include a full script, thumbnails, and one page of completed art.

- Although we consider all submissions, we are less likely to consider stories that are not entirely stand alone, fail to fall within the target page count, or do not have a complete story arc.

- Publishing agreement will confer exclusivity and royalties for sales exceeding initial projections, generally limited to three months. Subject to negotiation.

- Submissions must be received between November 1st and November 30th. Short fiction must be complete. Comics must have completed scripts and thumbnails. Expect a response by December 15th.

- I`m continuously looking for high quality artists, excited to collaborate with myself and authors for ANVIL. I will need covers, interior art, and commercial art for each issue.

- My goal is to match artists with stories that they enjoy and compliment their skills. Preferably I`d love to take a relatively hands off approach to the art design overall, so if that sounds interesting...
