Prometheus: A Queer Futuristic Horror Anthology

Hello wonderful people!

We wanted to give you a little update about the current status of PROMETHEUS.

As of yesterday, the paperbacks and hardcover are officially set up on all platforms, printed proofs are ordered - which means we'll soon have the very first real, printed book of PROMETHEUS in our hands! At that point, we'll go through the last round of proofreading - and then we'll be ready to send out your eBooks and get started on ordering the bulk of paperbacks and hardcovers.

Take a peek at the mocked up hardcover! Look at that thicc spine! 

 

We're also getting the first test prints of the bookmark and illustrations soon; stickers and pins are ordered.

So, there's a lot going on in the background!

And of course, we're also working on finishing the set-up for our next project, TRANS/FERAL.

Did you know that our founder Jake also has a project in the next Book Bazaar? OMEN is a queer science fantasy novel set in the cyberpunk city Neo Requiem, where nature and fresh produce have been long forsaken, corruption and neon having taken over. Add a little bit of spice and polyamory and a dash of Eat The Rich.

Sounds absolutely delicious, right? 

Make sure to check them out. In the meantime, we'll be hard at work perfecting PROMETHEUS for you.

Hello beautiful humans!

First things first: A few of you have received the survey for Pledge Manager! You're our guinea pigs (Pres says yummy!) to see that everything's set up correctly before all surveys go out.
What's that anyway? Well, surveys are there to confirm your pledge or make alterations (yes, you can make some!) It's also for you to fill in your shipping address (for physical rewards) or email address (for ebooks).

If you haven't received a survey yet, expect one to come the next days!
You'll still be able to change your address until mid September, in case you're moving etc.
Shipping fees will be collected around that time as well.

There's also the option to pre-order if you missed the campaign.

Now, that this is out of the way... Preston wants everyone to know that ARC sign-ups are officially open! If you'd like to have an early early peek at PROMETHEUS, that's your chance!

And of course, follow along for the next project:  TRANS/FERAL: An Anthology of Trans Erotica

That's all Preston has to say today (which has been a lot). 
We're hoping you have a wonderful week! 

Our Backerkit for PROMETHEUS: A QUEER FUTURISTIC HORROR ANTHOLOGY has funded. Thanks to your support, we reached our initial goal and our first two stretch goals, and we're so happy we're going to be able to give this book the incredible packaging it deserves, while also doubling our compensation for authors!

The Backerkit concluded at €2,563 and all we can say is THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

PREORDERS OPEN

If you didn't manage to pledge in time but still want to secure a copy of this amazing book or the associated goodies, you can now preorder it here: Pre-Order Store

Spread the word!


WHAT'S NEXT?

We're currently running a final proofread on our digital copy of PROMETHEUS ahead of an eARC campaign to continue promoting this collection of wonderful stories by 16 wonderful authors. When this process is finished, we will begin testing out the printing process.

What can you expect when?

We'll send the post-campaign survey, which includes information like shipping and address, around July 11th 2026.

Those of you who added any eBooks from the curators or contributors to your orders can expect to start receiving these after filling out the post-campaign survey. Be sure to check the email you used for Bookfunnel download links, as ebooks will be sent to you this way! You can expect these a few days after filling out your post-campaign survey. 

eBook orders for PROMETHEUS will be delivered on release day: October 31st 2026

Depending on the postal services and customs, we are hoping to have our publisher copies by release day so we can ship all physical items out immediately. Items ship from Norway, so depending where you are, you can expect a waiting time of 1-3 weeks for most places.


MORE FROM SNAKESKIN

Loved this project?

Snakeskin will be back in 2027 with TRANS/FERAL: AN ANTHOLOGY OF TRANS EROTICA and you can presave our Backerkit here: TRANS/FERAL Backerkit, going live October 29th, 2026

We already have 17 authors confirmed and are expecting more to participate. Get ready for the steam dial to turn all the way up.

Meanwhile, Preston communicates her thanks and hopes to see you for the next one!

Slithering regards to everyone who supported this project and to the amazing authors who made it possible in the first place! 

Can you believe it? The Backerkit for PROMETHEUS will come to an end in only 4 days! Almost 100 people have supported our first anthology so far - thank you so much! You're all wonderful.

We're also really close to the hardcover special upgrade stretch goal! Only 35€ to go! That's seven ebooks or two paperbacks or one hardcover! Isn't that amazing? 

Of course, we also have another poll - we've become a bit addicted to these...

We're just one week from the finish line, but Preston wanted to be extra for her extra special backers. We've got a limited number of these hand-crafted bracelets as a last week incentive to help us get to that second stretch goal. What can we say? 

We really want our hardcover backers to get fancy printed edges and full-color illustrations... so... what are you waiting for? You can get yourself a copy of this brilliant anthology AND look good doing it. 

And if you've already backed... don't worry... you can upgrade your pledge to include this add-on!

Available in two styles: PROMETHEUS or SNAKESKIN... which one will you choose?
