Submissions and Slush Pile Update #6


STUPEFYING STORIES IS NOW CLOSED TO UNSOLICITED SUBMISSIONS


Repeating that message to make sure it’s loud and clear and front and center. And having done so...

We had a medical emergency in the family which began to develop in mid-September, became a crisis in the last week of September, and has since evolved into something nasty, complex, and with longer-term implications than the doctors thought at first. Yesterday was my first day back in the RLP office in nearly three weeks.

As you might expect, there was a considerable stack of email waiting for my attention. It’s going to take me a few days to sort through it all and answer all the queries. Thank you for your patience.

Mundane reality is entirely too inconvenient for writers and editors.
