Clarion West Write-a-Thon 2022

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 big & lofty goal for this Write-a-thon is to draft my neuroscience-inspired thriller, or at least get a solid start.

But my writing brain is very susceptible to new, shiny ideas, and I usually end up juggling multiple writing projects. [sigh]

So my more flexible goal is to add at least 500 words to one of my WIPs every day. Ideally, this WIP will be my thriller, but if it’s an unrelated short story that’s really calling to me, that’s okay too. 

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. 

Wish me luck – and sponsor me or another writer if you can!

We are open for general submissions, but would like to specifically call for stories or poems regarding gun and reproductive rights.

Please remember your submission must also relate to sci-fi, anarchism, transhumanism, or dystopia for Issue 2 launching in September https://t.co/a6gvnHvPVk
