For all the people who love science-fiction and fantasy, you need to visit this site and subscribe. Daily Science Fiction is a great site for readers and writers. Subscribe to get FREE short stories every weekday. Even though they're offering the stories for free, writers are paid eight cents a word. Pretty awesome, eh?
These are quality stories from new writers to Hugo Award winning authors. I've had a subscription for over half a year now. It's so much fun having a short story to read each morning while eating my Fruit Loops.
I recently learned something even more fantastic about Daily Science Fiction: they are now SFWA approved. Yes! One of my goals this year is to attempt to get a story published with a SFWA approved market and become a SFWA associate member. (Maybe one day, a full active member!) Daily Science Fiction is always seeking submissions.
awesome! thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I'll be posting my story for Auntie Tara's word prompt this week. :)
DeleteSounds very cool. Thanks, Christine.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. It's great sci-fi.
DeleteI'll check it out. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. I'm glad I finally joined when I did.
DeleteI'll check it out then! My royalty advances aren't big enough to qualify me for the SFWA.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great site. I also think it's a bit easier to qualify for membership with short stories than with a novel.
DeleteSuch a great idea! Thanks for the heads-up. :-D
ReplyDeleteOooh, what a cool goal to have! I never really thought of doing stuff like that. You inspire me. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I could inspire you. Hopefully you'll have some good luck with it. If you want to try more short stories, visit Ralan.com and they have lists of anthologies and magazines seeking submissions.
DeleteOh yes. They are a very cool place. (Also they've published me twice).
ReplyDeleteI did read the one very good story of yours. That's awesome!
DeleteThe hubby loves SF. I will have to share this with him. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! :) I hope your hubby enjoys the daily stories.
DeleteHehe! I just signed up for this on Friday.
ReplyDeleteCool! Let's keep our fingers crossed that we might be reading one of mine one time soon. :)
DeleteGreat link... going to sign up too... thanks for sharing:)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! There's some awesome short stories. Today's was a sad one, but nice to provoke a different sort of emotion.
DeleteThanks for sharing this. It looks like it's shaping up to be one of my new favorite sites to visit. Considering submitting some things as well. Good luck to you.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome and thank you! :) Good luck.
DeleteWhat a great opportunity. Good luck writing something for it.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I hope to have something submitted by the end of the week.
DeleteHow cool! Thank you so much for this info and link. I'm going to sign up. I'm sure you can reach your goal!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I'm sure you'll enjoy the daily stories. :)
DeleteHow very cool! Too bad I don't write Sci-fi, but it would be fun to try.

They take some fantasy too.
DeleteI get that in my inbox. Best on meeting your goal this year, Christine. I'm still trying to meet that one. Of course, I need to start submitting again...one day soon.
