I don't usually post paying contests but this one may be of interest to many of the writers who stop by here. The contest is sponsored by Shots Magazine and ABCTales out of the UK. They're looking for serial thrillers, that would be 10 episodes of 1800 words each. Lee Child will be judging. The cost is $20. You can find more information here http://wwwshotsmagcouk.blogspot.com/2009/10/serial-thriller-competition-launched.html or you can go directly to the submission page at ABCTales at this url http://www.abctales.com/node/587321
I've ran across a couple of blog posts this past week that spoke about this new ezine, but the site hadn't been set up yet. Today Michael Bracken was kind enough to send me the link. Michael really keeps his ear to ground when there's a new market popping up.
The new zine, "Feral", is the brainchild of editor, Lyman Feero. The idea behind this new zine is to free writers so they can cross as many genre lines as their stories need. But he also wants the stories dark. You can find the guidelines at http://october365.com/feral/?page_id=15 There are already two stories up on the site which you can find by clicking on fiction at the bottom of the page. The stories? First is "The Cove" by Patrick Shawn Bagley, and the second is "A Better Life" by Chris F. Holm.
