I thought I'd pop on here, say "Hi." I haven't done any message-boarding in a long time. I've got a couple of short stories published in ALBEDO 1, won second place in last year's Aeon Award, and have a couple of novels together, which I'm trying to get published.

I'm curious about good markets for new and aspiring horror writers in particular, with an emphasis on places for novels. Any good places? It feels like the market has dried up a lot over the past few years, although maybe I'm not looking in the right spots.

Also, are publishing houses taking short story collections at all these days?

First of all, welcome to the Cooler. As to your question, I had no problem whatsoever to have my collection of short stories (a mix between horror and romance) published. I also know that this publishing house has published other collections of short stories.

Welcome to AW. Hope you enjoy your stay with us.
How do you like your popcorn?

If you go to the bottom of the page to the ‘forum jump’ you can scroll down and find all the areas of this place. Most of the SYW areas require the password of ….vista. Good luck.



You might want to head over to the horror area and read some of the stickys.
