My 2nd Quarter submission to the Writers of the Future contest picked up another Silver Honorable mention. I’m quite proud of the short story Six-gun Apotheosis, and this is the second time it has garnered this mention. I just wish it would earn some money…:)
I haven’t sent a story for consideration in the 3rd Quarter, and probably won’t since the deadline is June 30th, but I imagine that I will do so for the next.
I also did not submit for the PNWA contest this year, and have let my membership lapse. I just wasn’t utilizing the membership enough to justify paying the dues, not to mention how difficult I found it to stay within the 3000 word limit for submission to their contest.
The one major thing preventing me for spamming out shorts to every contest I can find is…I am most likely going to gather them all into a volume that I will release toward the end of the year, and I don’t want to have to set any aside just in case they were to win. Publishing rules preclude doing so.
I’ll keep you posted here when the book becomes available.
