The Winter Holidays are times of love, joy, family togetherness, peace, and goodwill for all. They are also times of stress, strife, family feuds, pressure, and heartache. But most of all, they’re chock full of pervertibles: ornament hooks, candles, jingle bells, tape, candy canes, kinky gift giving, and more.
Riptide Publishing will be releasing a 2012 Kinky Holiday Anthology of short stories (5,000 to 10,000 words each). So send us your kinky holiday shorts!
-
Holidays include any end-of-year celebration: Christmas, Hannukah, Solstice, Epiphany, Kwanzaa, even Diwali and western or Chinese New Year.
-
Stories should be erotic with a significant kink component: D/s relationships, pervertible toys, holiday-themed kink activities. Don’t be afraid to push erotic boundaries, but please make the BDSM both psychologically and physically realistic, as well as completely safe, sane, and consensual.
- Stories should be relationship-focused and have a happy ending for the main characters. The kink should be in service to an exploration of a stage in the life of a relationship and the ending should be overflowing with holiday cheer and schmoopiness.
This anthology will be packaged, marketed, and sold as a single product, though stories may be released individually, via limited distribution, roughly three months after the release of the anthology.
20% of the proceeds will be donated to the National Leather Association International Domestic Violence Project.
