Hey, you're paying grown-up money! Pity about the Led Zeppelin stipulation, though. :-)

Well, I figured I had to do something if I didn’t want to be inundated with cheap imitations of “Demon, Star, Alien, Cat.”

Ah, and I see you also don't want self-parody. You're obviously going to be a hard market for me to crack.

Yesterday my wife and I were watching Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (Yes, I bought the DVD set. I am weak). When we came to the scene where the Joneses escape Germany on a Zeppelin airliner, I thought to myself, "Hmm, wonder how David's antho is coming along?" And now I know.

That's a beautiful announcement/guidelines page you've put together.

Thanks, Karen! I’ll pass the compliment along to Lara (the designer). Hopefully it’ll be reflected in the manuscripts we receive . . .

However, your guidelines didn't give any restrictions regarding Dread Zeppelin.

Curses! A loophole!

Let’s just say a story would have to be pretty damned spectacular in order to get by with the only Zeppelins in it being Dread ones.

'Dread zeppelin', the horrific ghost zeppelins filled with zombie crews ...

Now, see, I was thinking more like happy-go-lucky small-time aerial ganja smugglers.

Wouldn't that be the _dred_ zeppelin? :)

Hey, if Dread Zeppelin themselves want to leave the ‘a’ in, I figure it’s no business of mine.
