There is some really cool stuff on the internet--my bookmarks are all at home, but I thought I'd start this so anyone else with links they'd like to share will put them up...Publications, resources, whatever :grin

Okay--to start things off (and I can't necessarily vouch for anything except these links worked tonight, and they might be a fun way to procrastinate for a while...)

<font face="book antiqua" size="3"> My home on diary-x, see the signature if you want that link. Then if you want to check out some really twisted horror -- I'm the co-editor of The House of Pain. Screw Gothic.net -- I hate that site, if you want horror check out The House of Pain. Many of the writers from there go on to get published on bigger places. </font>

Updates on three markets

Hey y'all!

Here's an update on these three online markets that I posted on some time ago, in case anyone is interested:

From the Asylum is now paying $25.00 per story, up from the $5.00 they used to pay (also $10 for flash fiction, $10 for poetry). They're slow to respond these days for some reason, but are still going. And if they accept a story, it also gets printed in a neat little paperback that comes out in the summer. I had two pieces in last year's book. :)

www.fromtheasylum.com

Alien Skin is not accepting full length fiction until April 15 or thereabouts, but they are accepting flash fiction. Detailed guidelines are on the site.

www.alienskinmag.com

Don't have any updates or anything on this next one, but am posting it because I like them and they have a really cool website, with graphics and creepy sounds and everything. ;) I really need to send them something else, when I get time.

That's it for now! Back to your regularly scheduled discussions. :)

Market tip

Hey guys,

Here's an interesting market that pays 5 cents a word for fiction, a dollar a line for poetry, and I think $15.00 for reviews. There was something in there about art work, too. One caveat: It's a brand new online publication so I can't reccomend for or advise against. But it does look like something interesting to check out!


Guidelines are at: http://vacantfunhouse.com/guidelines.html

The horror channel is like the ultimate thing for a horror buff such as myself.

I prefer www.fangoria.com :) It's been around forever and I happily own a copy of the 250th issue... (whichever recent milestone it passed) :)

I thought I'd throw my two-cents in here quick.

Check out: http://writers-bbs.com

I realize that they are another writing forum, but I found that if you are really interested in sharpening your skills, these folks are excellent to get advice from. There are several who are published in the short story areas and there are even a few published novelists. The horror challenges are great and I must say they have taught me a great deal in the last six months.

ta-daaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

www.pretty-scary.net

the independant horror site thats run by women of horror for women of horror.

Its amazing - there are independant film makers, artists, writers, cartoonists, (there are a few men in there, they will let you join!)
They have recently started a database you can join, people who are 'looking for help' can check into, so people looking for screenplay writers, film make-up crews, sketch artists - can view it and you hopefully get picked up for work.
Its one of the finest places I have ever been and I am a proud member and contributor - I do author interviews and reviews there, they have a literature section thats packed full of goodies and a forum.

have a little look!

Several of my faves are already on the list, and so I will add a couple that are near and dear to my heart:

+The Horror Library+ www.horrorlibrary.net

Dark Recesses Press www.darkrecesses.com

Ah, that explains why you rejected a story of mine and recommended I submit it to horror library! They'd already rejected it though (Sniff). Although they did shortlist a novella of mine for another anthology. Hooray! But it didn't make the shorter than shortlist. Sniff.
