I know everyone has been waiting but the wait is finally over. After much thinking and revising the theme for FANG Volume 9 is “Bad Romance.” This is a broad theme that I know can go many places.

1. Forbidden/Taboo (within reason) Relationships – If you want warring families and factions with love that shouldn’t be that would work as a “Bad Romance”
2. “Doomed” relationships and affairs that are passionate but not sustainable
3. Romance that just goes badly comedically

There are plenty of options here. If you are not sure if your story is on theme please reach out to the editor and he will gladly assist you.
FANG is an M/M erotic furry anthology. All stories must center around anthropomorphic animals and contain erotic/sexual content; it is a staple of the collection after all.
