  • When it's cold, and I can barely feel my feet and toes, I think about this. And how warm I could be if I were there.

  • CALL FOR SUBMISSION: HEIST X SACHET This is an invitation to Join #HeistClub and Sachet Novels Publishing. Chosen stories will be published through the following media: • As individual stories in Sachet Novels via Cherry Mobile’s Fun Club • As part of an anthology in Print • As part of an anthology in eBook form on Amazon under Talecraft Publishing We are looking for stories which highlight a heist of valuable Philippine historical artifacts. The following conditions should be met: 1. Story must be centered on an artifact. The artifact must belong to a historical character from the Philippines (from any era). Item may or may not be an actual historical artifact. This will be your McGuffin. 2. As this is a #HeistClub crime fiction story, the planning and execution of the crime must be well explained. Criminals may or may not be caught but police/detective must be shown doing steps to catch them. 3. Genre: Romantic Suspense 4. One character must be a reclusive genius. This character does not have to be main character. He or she can be a friend, a mysterious person who provides assistance, or the villain. 5. Apart from your artifact, you must have the following keywords mentioned in your story: church, wings, cries in the night, curse, moon, betrothal/wedding. 6. Required word count is 5,000-8,000. 7. Since the artifact in your story will belong to a real historical figure, do your research! We want realistic, well-rounded stories. Not all your research will need to be shown in your manuscript, but your story must not have any obvious plot holes or historical inconsistencies. 8. Sensitivity must be taken when incorporating research. No plagiarism is allowed. Research material cannot be quoted verbatim. 9. No sex scenes please. If you need to include it in the story, it must be "behind closed doors," or "fade to black." 10. No swear words or profanity. “Damn” or “Dammit” may be acceptable depending on the context used. The official start of this workshop is May 1, 2018, so we are taking sign-ups for now. Accomplish this form if you’re interested: http://bit.ly/Heist_Sachet Submission of stories is on June 15, 2018. Chosen stories will be launched on August 4
