My Little Corner

The scattered thoughts of short story writer Sandra Seamans

Friday, August 2, 2013

Every writer has a weakness and mine is writing description. I tend to avoid it wherever possible :) But this piece by Ava Jae has some excellent tips for getting it right.

Hat tip to Regan Wolfrom!

sandra seamans: So, who am I? First off, I'm a short story writer and proud of that. I've had stories short-listed for both Derringer and Spinetingler Awards. Even this blog has been nominated twice for a Spinetingler Award in the service to the community category. My short story, "Survival Instincts", first published in PulpPusher, was included in the best crime and mystery stories of 2010 collection, By Hook or by Crook. I've been published in many of the online zines, had stories included in print magazines like Needle and Pulp Modern, and in e-anthologies like Pulp Ink and Beat to a Pulp: Superhero. I've also had a collection of my short stories, Cold Rifts, published by Snubnose Press. I was also the co-editor of the small print magazine, A Flasher’s Dozen and served two years as President of the Short Mystery Fiction Society.
