Submission Tracker: 35 submissions received as of November 21, 2024. Next update at 45 submissions.
NOTE: All submissions sent before November 22 have been acknowledged as received. If you did not receive an acknowledgment, please CONTACT ME.
Acceptance/rejections will be emailed to all submitting authors within 60 days of submission close, however authors will be notified of rejection prior to that date if it is determined that a story isn’t a good fit. This will allow authors to resubmit elsewhere. Authors will also be notified if they make the “long list,” although a final decision cannot be made until the submission period closes and all stories have been read and evaluated.
The evaluation process takes time. It may take 45 days (or longer) from receipt of submission to learn if you’ve made the long list OR been rejected. I will attempt to offer a brief explanation for any rejection. It doesn’t make it any easier to swallow, but at least you’ll know why.
