      • Choose an image you would like to write a story about.
        • This will stay open until I have enough stories so do not automatically pick "werewolves" or "vampires" because I don't want 12-25 werewolf/vampire stories in the slushpile. Pick something interesting.
        • Don't steal an image of the cards. I will buy images for the story posts once the issue is set.
        • Write your stories and submit it the usual way (see below).
        • My hope is to have enough good stories collected by the end of this year or beginning of 2022 to select for the issue.
        • Knowledge of tarot is not required but will make for interesting stories. Add your own twist (twyst) to tarot.​

  • My Job is a Hellhole!
    • Working for demons, imps, devils, and other minions of hell. Your boss is a denizen of the underworld, but the story can take place in any setting.
