Being an old lady in this business frustrates me sometimes. There are days when I feel I started too late, that I still have too much to learn, and if I was ever lucky enough to nab a book deal, I'd probably die before the book was even published. So when I read this essay over at Murderati by Tess Gerritsen, it made me feel better. http://www.murderati.com/blog/2009/6/2/authors-can-die-with-their-boots-on.html
Out of the Gutter has posted its list of writers who's stories made the cut for their 6th issue. A big Snoopy Dance for all the chosen, but especially to friend of the corner, Michael Bracken, who had 2 stories make the cut and some folks who's writing I really enjoy - Christa Miller, Albert Tucher, and Jed Ayres. Congrats to everyone!!
And for our Sci-fi / Fantasy writers I ran across a couple of anthologies that are seeking submissions. Professional level pay for both.
If you're into wizards you might give "The Way of the Wizard" a go. There's a 5000 word limit. Pay is 5 cents a word with a $250 max http://www.johnjosephadams.com/?p=1760
The second is Clockwork Phoenix 3. They're taking submission between Oct 1 and Nov 15 with a word count max of 10,000. They're pay 2 cents a word. http://www.clockworkphoenix.com/#guidelines
