Never Stop Never Stopping: The Golden Rules of Submitting Short Fiction

Writing short fiction is one skill; publishing stories is a whole different endeavor, but one that is completely achievable. Jeff Somers shares some of the lessons he's learned over the years about submitting and selling short fiction that have helped him get paid for his writing over the years. In this session, Somers breaks down the process so that other writers can find that same publishing success with their own stories. 

Instructor: Jeff Somers

Jeff’s published over thirty short stories as well; his story “Sift, Almost Invisible, Through” appeared in the anthology Crimes by Moonlight, published by Berkley Hardcover and edited by Charlaine Harris and his story “Ringing the Changes” was selected for Best American Mystery Stories 2006. He survives on the nickels and quarters he regularly finds behind his ears, his guitar playing is a plague upon his household, and his lovely wife The Duchess is convinced he would wither and die if left to his own devices, but this is only half true.
