She is overcome by a sensation in the pit of her stomach, an ominous and unnerving feeling brought about by the presence of the figure. She attempts to look away but finds that her eyes are unwillingly fixated. -  SEEN

The beam of the light reflected over scaly skin with a translucent glow. Round, black, lidless disks stared at me from eye sockets on a face without a nose. - SIREN

She wasn’t afraid of this stranger who appeared to be waiting for her.- SHADES OF LOVE

People pressed in on him from all sides. Before long, the crowd carried him about like a stranded raft helpless against the ocean wave. - NOT LIKE THEM 
But what troubled Yasmine was their silence. All of them, silent. - LUCKY

 Children are taught there is nothing to fear there, but adults recognize the lie, the white lie, about the dark: it is a mixture of the fear of the unknown with the fear of the known. - INTO THE DARK

ATTENTION WRITERS:

Write Volumes is currently accepting quality submissions for its three debut anthologies that will be published in late 2019. Seeking fiction, poetry and creative nonfiction between 500-6000 words.
1) Horror and Strange Tales
2) Chicago (reflect on the city, expats exploring)
3) Transition and Transformation (moving, college, job, Sci-Fi, makeover, masks, apocalypse, ocean in the sky)
All of our anthologies take place from an American identity perspective. How you view American identity is up to you. You can tell a story from your heritage, or some strange tale that happened to you in America based on your gender, ethnicity, something unique to you and how that conflicts, bridges, or harmonizes with American identity. 
Please provide a 2-3 sentence synopsis at the beginning of your piece.
No simultaneous submissions unless you retain the copyright.
Email as a Word document to: writevolumes@gmail.com
No entry fees
Payment: one contributor copy
Deadline July 15, 2019.
