Robot Beavers and Poutine Currency, Seeking Futuristic Canada 150 Stories

Toronto, Canada, March 08, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Dark Helix Press, an Indie publisher based in Toronto is seeking writers and poets to submit speculative fiction with a Futuristic Canada theme to celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday. The company is part of 150Alliance, an open network of groups, individuals and organizations, working together to make the most of Canada's sesquicentennial in 2017.

Open for submissions now through April 30, 2017, Canadians are encouraged to dream up what the future will bring to our peaceful country. The anthology will be made available July 1, 2017 provided enough submissions are collected.

“We hope to see some exciting stories about Canada, perhaps a space opera involving robot beavers or using poutine as currency in some bizarre alternative timeline. In speculative fiction, anything goes!” Editor JF Garrard states. “We want writers to send in tales that will make us laugh, cry and instill some terror in us. Then we go back to contemplating about how so many tourists have seen the Canadian Rockies but we haven’t!”

For more information about submitting a piece of writing in the form of flash fiction, short story or poetry, please visit Dark Helix Press’ submission page online at www.darkhelixpress.com/submissions.
