Clarion West Write-a-Thon 2022!

I am thrilled that the 2022 Clarion West workshop is back in person, and a new cohort of writers gets to travel to Seattle and write, read & discuss speculative short fiction for 6 weeks. Congratulations & best wishes to all of them!

And to celebrate, I’m participating in the online Clarion West Write-a-Thon again. Both to get some serious writing done and to help to fundraise for the future Clarion West workshops.

My writing goals

My goal for this Write-a-Thon is to make progress on my current writing projects. That’s all. These projects include my neuroscience-inspired thriller and a handful of short stories, since I always juggle multiple manuscripts. Anything counts: words added to the manuscript, notes in a notebook, tweaks to an outline.

In addition, every day, I will feature a different speculative short fiction magazine, with links to their website and to their listing on the Submission Grinder. 

Speculative short fiction magazines

There are so many excellent magazines out there, publishing amazing flash, short stories, novelettes, and novellas, that I decided to highlight only the newer, smaller ones. The order is random. (I literally wrote down the magazine names on pieces of paper and drew one name for each day.)

REJECTION THREAD! When I was soliciting ideas for my recent stats thread, one request was that I provide some insight into what story elements were behind my deciding to reject it. I got some stats, but wanted a thread to add some context around each, and maybe a few tips. 1/
