I would go with this, which is how Women of Color in the Arts defines it:

"WOCA defines a woman of color as a woman of African, Latin, Asian, Middle-Eastern or Native American descent - historically under-represented groups working in the performing arts field."

I'm assuming that indigenous Australian would also qualify?

Yes. (Surprised not to see them mentioned in WOCA's definition.)

Definition of "Earth"? isaiahwordsmith August 14 2013, 02:45:04 UTC

How much latitude is there in Earth as a setting? Would alternate histories, or a futuristic setting, be allowed?

Re: Definition of "Earth"? ericreynolds August 14 2013, 03:39:05 UTC

Alternate histories/futuristic settings are fine.

So I'm guessing an alien archaeologist is right out. ;-)

That's okay, I can work with it.

Hmm, since everyone is the hero (or heroine) of their own story, could I make the protagonist a member of a political/religious group which are presented as the "bad guys" in a few of my other stories (eg The Chara Talisman)? I suppose it might be like using a Nazi archaeologist in an Indiana Jones setting, but if I can make the character sympathetic...

Re: Archaeologist anonymous November 30 2013, 09:57:59 UTC

I'm curious: does the protagonist have to be a trained, professional archaeologist, or can she be someone without professional training (or without much of it) who finds herself in a situation where she must carry out the duties of an archaeologist in a sustained, serious way (i.e. excavate or make sense of the ruins)?

Thanks,

Jeremy E.

Jeremy, that should be fine.

Multiple Submissions? anonymous January 1 2014, 00:22:38 UTC

What are the rules on multiple submissions for this anthology?

Re: Multiple Submissions? ericreynolds January 1 2014, 00:53:30 UTC

Generally prefer just one submission, but two would be okay.
