Congrats to everyone, whether you placed or not. I just sent my HM out to Asimov's. The best way to move on is to send it out to the next market.

Congrats Becky and Peony!!!

Definitely beginning to feel the effects of extended twitching this week. Sleep has been...spotty at best. It would be awesome to see some more of us forumites win this quarter!

I can now announce that I've sold my first story, and to a pro market at that. Flame Tree accepted my story for their "A Dying Planet" anthology. http://blog.flametreepublishing.com/fantasy-gothic/gothic-fantasy-successful-submissions-detective-thirillers-and-a-dying-planet?utm_campaign=G...

Just submitted my Q4. Thanks to Wulf's challenge, I wrote two new stories this year, for which I am grateful.

Just submitted. Good luck everyone!

R. Good luck to all of those still in the running and congrats to those who placed!

This workshop sounds amazing! I checked out the schedule, and it looks like it covers just about everything a writer needs to get a good foothold as they're starting out.

HM here - best of luck to everyone still in the running!

I'm also interested in swapping 450s for Q4 - please pm me

Hi Moon, Your 250 didn't have nearly the emotional impact of your 500 or 999, at least to me. I noticed your opening did not anchor us in a setting in the 250. I feel that the first 2 paragraphs of your 500 are extremely important in giving us a character in a setting with a problem. I sat in a hard...

I just submitted for Q3 - my first new story in a long time. Thanks Moon for encouraging us to push ourselves with new stories :)

I did some digging and found an interesting post on the subject on the absolutewrite forums: https://absolutewrite.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-208362-p-33.html ********************************* JJ Litke 07-23-2015, 07:23 PM Here they are: https://twitter.com/ccfinlay/status/622077408154222593 htt...

I just got the following rejection letter from F&SF on a previous HM of mine: From: CC Finlay <notify@moksha.io> Date: Mon, Apr 29, 2019 at 1:37 PM Subject: "[my Story Title]" / F&SF To: Thomas C Woodward <[my email address]> Dear Tom, Thank you for giving me a chance to read "...

My wife and I will be going to the Gala. We just drove through Topanga Canyon to see the ocean today, and it made me think of you Preston :) I hope the workshop is going great!

Just submitted! A special thank you to Becky, Dustin, Ellie, Mike, Glenn, Sabine, Ryan, and Nate - your crits were incredibly helpful!

Would anyone be up for a quick 450 exchange before the end of this month? Please PM me if interested.

Just submitted! Best of luck to everyone!

Congrats Wulf and Brittany! You both deserve this so much!

Let's do this thing! I'm in.

HM here. Congrats/commiserations all around! And good luck to those still in the running, I'm pulling for you!

For along came a sign,
That all would be fine,
Actually wait...that's not right,
I just dreamt it.
