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.

    Wow... just, wow! What a brilliant article. There is light at the end of the tunnel :)

    Thank you Debs, for myself, and every other struggling wannabe writer out there who reads this - you're a diamond ;)

    Excellent! It's nice to be reminded that these are just people doing a job, like everyone else.

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

      I remember Jay Lake saying that voice sells, Milo.
