“Butch” and “top” may sometimes seem to be attached at the hip. Many will mistakenly insist that these terms mean the same thing! They most certainly are not a package deal. You might see plenty of personal ads with “Butch Top” in the title, but the truth is out there: butch bottoms exist, and they are everywhere. It’s time that sweet place where masculinity meets bottoming is put on display by the writers who know there’s nothing finer than a butch offering up power.
I need stories about the diversity of butch bottoms: female, genderqueer, transgender, transsexual, male, intersex or just human, of any sexual orientation, bottoming, submitting, or acting on masochist desires.
Guidelines:
• Erotica only.
• Submit stories of 1500-6000 words to ButchBottomsEditor at gmail dot com.
• Put the title of your story in the subject line of the email. Each story must be emailed separately.
• Submissions must be sent as Word files with text in 12 point Times New Roman font and must be double-spaced.
• Include your legal name, pseudonym (if any) you wish to use, address, phone number, email and a bio (selected authors will be asked to update their bios prior to publication) above the title of your submission directly on the Word file.
• Unpublished material will strongly be considered.
• Previously published material will also be considered, provided you have retained your rights; please submit previous publication information (and the terms of your copyright agreement) in these cases.
• You may submit more than one piece of writing.
Send questions to ButchBottomsEditor at gmail dot com.
Submissions open 3/1/09. A submissions deadline will be announced soon.
Once selections have been made, every person who submitted work will receive an announcement.
Please post freely!
Aidan Derry identifies as queer, occasionally bisexual and masculine. Butch Bottoms provided yet another opportunity to glimpse the diversity of human sexual desire.
