AlternaTEAS is a Steampunk/Urban Fantasy anthology published by Sky Warrior Books. The reading period is from March 1, 2015 to July 31st, 2015.

The anthology will include stories (from between 5,000-7,500 words — please query me if outside the boundaries of those already stated). Stories will be of intrigue, assignations and assassinations plotted (or committed) over a cup of tea . You are not limited to specific people or set in Victorian England. Japan, India and even the US have fine tea traditions. The more out of the ordinary a story is, the more I’m likely to keep it. Humor is not out of order.
