The Underdogs Rise

It’s mashup time! This anthology will focus exclusively on BIPOC writers who live in or hail from locales in the United States and whose short stories feature BIPOC characters set in a science fiction or fantasy setting where the character is an underdog who uses their skills to overcome a challenge. 

We want the character to use the skills and powers they already possess in creative ways to solve their problems.  That means no guides or tricksters come along to give them a way to win, they have to search inside themselves to seek it out.

We are not looking for horror or dystopian novels.  Also, nothing too grim or gritty.  Since we are The Underdog Press we want our first collection to be about the underdogs.
