Monday Markets

I believe I've posted a link to Pulp Empire before http://pulpempire.com/mag/ but I thought I'd let you know that I've put a link to the zine over there on the left. They're trying something interesting with their publication. Stories are posted monthly on the site, then a yearly collection is published in print from Lulu. The writers then receive a royalty percentage from the sales. I don't know how it will work out but it sounds interesting. Pulp Empire publishes, yes, pulp stories in the style of Doc Savage, in the 2500 to 15,000 word range. Any genre and any time period, they're not fixated on the thirties as some pulp site are. You can find the guidelines at http://pulpempire.com/mag/?page_id=3

Bookgasm posted a call for submissions on their very cool review site. They're putting together an anthology of "Mondo Sasquatch" stories. They're looking for you bigfoot fans out there. The deadline is August 15 for flash stories in the 250 word range and shorts of at least 1500 words. The payment is one copy. You can find all the details at http://www.bookgasm.com/news/bookgasm-seeks-submissions-for-bigfoot-anthology/

And finally, Newpages.com has listed their June call for submissions list. Lots of poetry calls listed for the poets among us. http://www.newpages.com/literary/submissions.htm

I like Pulpempire's stuff and have been meaning to try and send them something. But no time to write outside of given committments it seems these days.

Pulp empire seems a nice place to a pulp reader like me. Thanks for the link Sandra ;)

I tend to find more markets than I can ever hope to submit to, Charles, but I keep tapping away.

Welcome to the Corner, Deka, and you're most welcome!

"Mondo Sasquatch!" Now that's different.

It made me smile, David! I don't think I've read any Sasquatch stories, ever.
