I am thinking about writing an adventure set in the eastern Empire, what are the chances of being able to submit something like that to Black Library – or should I just approach it as purely fan fiction ?
Black Library do an open call for submissions every couple of years so it is definitely a possibility. Can’t remember when the last one was but they certainly do them.
I’m presuming this is without a literary agent to provide a commission, as that’s the industry standard way of writing for publishers like the Black Library. =P
That being said, the Black Library does yearly(?) submissions, usually starting around mid January through February though there is usually a fairly narrow theme for these. They pop up on Warhammer Community when they’re announced
I also recall an old blog by Black library author Robbie MacNiven about some of the other ways they draw in stories for like Anthologies and things. I’ll see if I can dig it up and edit in a link. It’s quite old but it might offer some idea of where to dig.
Edit: link. https://robbiemacniven.wordpress.com/2016/11/05/how-to-write-for-black-library/
