Editing has begun for Issue Three

WRITERS: Expect to receive a submission response in about a week. Also, I'm looking for an artist and/or graphic artist or photographer to create a cover for this issue's theme. I don't have any money to pay you, but I will promote all of your sites and print/online work. Let me know. Thanks!

ISSUE THREE Deadline is midnight tonight!

You have until midnight tonight to submit work for 5x5 Fiction: Issue Three consideration. Get those pens moving!! And be sure to read the guidelines...

5x5 Fiction ISSUE THREE reminder

Don't forget, 5x5 Fiction is always open to submissions. Quarterly deadlines are March 1st, June 1st, September 1st, and December 1st. Work accepted after deadline dates will appear in the following issue.

Also, please read the guidelines, ISSUE ONE and ISSUE TWO to truly understand what I'm looking for. Surprisingly, I still get submissions that are not exactly 25 words or 5 sentences or 5 words per sentence.

On a positive note, I'm receiving some powerful little gems from some ridiculously talented authors. ISSUE THREE is gonna be a knock-out.

5x5 Fiction ISSUE TWO Update...and more

At this point, responses have been sent out to all writers who submitted work for Issue Two. So check those mailboxes.

We're looking at a release date of on or before June 11th. Mark those calendars and spread the word. The Issue Two theme is...

...you'll just have to wait and see. Aw, don't you hate that?

Regarding submission guidelines, there will be two changes. One: submissions will be accepted year round without a cut-off date. Quarterly deadlines will be March 1st, June 1st, September 1st, and December 1st. Work accepted after deadline dates will appear in the following issue. Two: I will accept up to 5 works per e-mail (no need to send 5 separate e-mails anymore).

What else?

Oh, yes. Submission guidelines exist for a reason. I am, by nature, flexible. As many of you know, I am more than willing to work with you on editing and revising your work. I want you to succeed and see your work published. But, as of this day forward, if you send me work that doesn't adhere to the guidelines (i.e. wrong word count, more or less than 5 sentences, sentences with more or less than 5 words, multiple spelling errors...yes, this is happening!), I will unleash the claw on you. For those of you unaware of the claw...it tells me you haven't read the guidelines!...god help ya!

Anyway, I can't wait to show you this issue!
