"[Rantings is] going to be a different beast. I'm worried about this one's scope," she said.

Mahon said he has received only a handful of submissions so far, but is looking for a lot more people to write.

Submissions, which are limited to 5,000 words, are due on January 15.

And while he continues to search for a publisher, Mahon said he is "pretty optimistic" that he will find one once he has a manuscript in hand. He said he has received positive feedback from a few publishing houses.

For her part, Whitbeck said the anthology could have one valuable side effect for the Advocate.
