But what about you? You’re glamorous, right? We bet you have a dazzling idea for a story, don’t you? You probably even know the prompt by heart:

Roller Derby, nightclubs, glam aliens, (literal) party monsters, drugs, sex, glitter, debauchery, etc.

Here’s the details you’ve been waiting for:

The max word limit is 6000 with a deadline of March 15.
We’re paying $.05 per word.
You’ll have the chance to be edited by Hugo Award-winning editors and be in a ToC with awesome authors (see above).
We expect stories to follow standard manuscript format. We expect that the your name and contact info is on the first page of your submission. Please send only one submission at a time. If you can refrain—mostly due to the extremely short reading period—please do not query about your submission.

We can’t wait to see what you create. Surprise us. Amaze us. Dazzle us.
