Quote: richard hurndall, Sunday, 11 Jul 2010 07:27Another good place to check your story is the website 'oww sff.' It's a critique website dedicated to sf. But beware-- I've had some brutal critiques there. Really brutal. Over it now, I think. Never mind the brutality, were they useful?

But beware-- I've had some brutal critiques there. Really brutal. Over it now, I think. Never mind the brutality, were they useful? Probably useful, in that I realised that sf was not my genre. Tbh they were probably being nice to me. I'd read a couple of philip k dick books and thought I could emulate 'a scanner darkly' and instead produced some of the most clunky unimaginative prose ever. One story was about a robot that wrote pop songs called 'metal machine music', a joke that only a few lou reed fans would get. Total rubbish. Embarrassing. The death knell for my sf career came with a rejection from an sf zine that read something like, 'this story has absolutely no merit whatsoever.' So brutal, yes, and useful, definitely!

The dark deed is donw. Electronic submission off to Pedestal Magazine and then a list of others when that is inevitably rejected ... Long live the internet, all there at the touch of a button

Hello Sulcus!
I've just seen this thread. Try googling Electric Literature in Brooklyn NYC, which pays US$ 1000 per story. Not that they specialise in SF; but I sent in my "Morrie and the Grand Potato". The eds said I had just missed the final cut, and encouraged me to submit again.
Why not give it a shot?
Hugs and kisses,
Malume
