Interview with SFF Short Story Editors


I enjoyed this interview extract over at Inkpunks, talking to some high profile short story editors. I found it very encouraging. 

Check out what John Joseph Adams, Ellen Datlow, James Patrick Kelly, Mike Resnick, Stanley Schmidt, and Gordon Van Gelder have to say about the state of submissions.

  6. "Write until your fingers bleed." Yep. Voice seemed to be something lacking in most of their subs. Something to work on.
