Publishing!
Hello writers, how are you all?
Just to let you know that i’m currently pricing up printing cost but have run into a little problem. I have no idea how many copies we will need! So I have a few questions for you all…
Would you rather buy a print copy or buy through Kindle?
Would you be willing to buy even if your work is not included in the anthology?
What is the maximum you would...

Help!
I’ve just remembered this really cool book from my childhood but I can’t remember the title! Some teenagers get trapped in a cave and are slowly picked off by a creature from another dimension.
There is also a witch, pig henchmen, tar and ice cream…
Anyone read it too?

Hello writers!
We’ve been hit with a wave of submissions so we’ve been kept busy. Aside from reading through them we’ve also been looking at the layout for the anthology and will have some updates about that soon.
In the meantime, all we ask is that you continue to reblog our posts and send in your submissions. There’s only a week to go so don’t miss out!
If any of...

Hello writers.
Sorry we’ve been off the radar this week, my laptop has died (RIP Iceberg *sob*) so i’ve been completely out of contact. However, i’ve finally booted my sister’s up but it’s prehistoric so apologies for any typos. It still has Internet Explorer…
Anyway, here’s what we’ll be up to in the following few days -

So you are not sat wondering what is happening or if we are actually doing anything at all. Firstly, we have a new sort of flash like competition. This one is a sort of anti-Valentine’s day one, it lasts till the 13th then the winner is announced the following day. If you...

An update on our activities!
Right we’ve been pretty busy lately so I figured i’d give you all an update.
Firstly, i’ve been promoting in the local area and have also managed to find two potential stockists for the anthology in Chester and Liverpool. However, we have a favour to ask of you all; if your local library has a noticeboard we would appreciate it if you’d request a poster from us and ask...

It should give you an idea of the sort of work we’re looking for and how it’ll all look once Luke works his magic.
I’ll be online throughout the day so if you need any questions answering (or just fancy a chat) feel free to drop by our ask box.

Please note that anyone who puts ‘Twilight’ will be pelted with dungbombs.
I jest… I don’t have any dungbombs.

Hello all,
Again thank you for all your support you have given to us so far. It has been really quite brilliant so far, considering we have only been up and running for a few days; however to us this has been going for a lot longer due to all our planning and so on. So again thank you and spread the word.
More updates will be happening in the coming weeks, as we have said be it about Non-UK...
ohdeerjesus asked: LOVE this idea. Too bad I don't like in the U.K. though. Looking forward to purchasing the book! I'm excited to read the words of talented British writers! I find that I like British humor in books more than I do American. Maybe it's why I love England so much as well :)

I'm getting lots of messages from non-UK writers...
Luke and I appreciate the interest you’ve all shown in our anthology and would love to involve you all.
Currently we are still only accepting UK submissions HOWEVER (this is a big however) we are working on ways to open it up to all in the near future.
We’ll keep you all well informed of any changes, don’t worry.

We're really enjoying the submissions we have...
They make for very interesting bedtime reading!
Keep submitting!
Remember; if you have any questions regarding the genre or length of your work - email us or use our ask box.
Two more followers and we hit a hundred.
That’s a wee bit crazy as we’ve only been up and running for two days.
Followbacks for everyone of course.
abstractethic-deactivated201202 asked: Really quite interested in this whole project. Seriously considering submitting a little something as I feel it would be a nice landmark if I were to make the cut. However, I'm not well versed in writing about the topics you have specified. Any possibility of a wider spectrum in future editions?

Update:
Hello all, Thank you for all the submissions, reblogs, followers, and kind words so far. We are still tweaking parts of the site and information but we will keep you updated via twitter, facebook, etc if anything drastic happens. I have added some new pages that will hopefully answer some of the questions you may have. Again these are still being added to from time to time when situations...
Offline for forty-winks.
The PIYE team are calling it a night after a very successful day of promoting and responding to submissions. We still can’t believe how excellent the response has been so thank you all and keep at it!
The website is still being tweaked so if there’s anything you spot please bring it to our attention so we can fix it.
Keep the submissions and queries coming, Luke or I will be online...
spacewrangler asked: Why are you only taking submissions from the UK?
"I don't think my writing's good enough to...
Submit it anyway!
Seriously, have a little faith in your work guys. I know as writers we are all notoriously critical of our own work but step back and give it a chance.
We are thoroughly enjoying the submissions we have already and can’t wait to read more of them so get sending!
Profanities!
We just received an email regarding our rule on swearing in submissions.
We have absolutely no problems with it as long as it’s artistic!
Keep the submissions coming!
origamimind asked: Hi there! When you require a piece that has not been published, is posting it here in Tumblr considered "published"? Pardon the stupid question. Tumblr postings are considered published works by some. Thanks! Btw, this project is great. Best of luck!
