We hope you're enjoying SciFiAudio and Frequency Online so far. We're only just getting started... stop back over the next couple of weeks, and we promise you more dazzling downloads, scintillating sounds, fantastical fiction, and the finest words that money can buy.... Credits: Editor: Jeremy
Bloom Frequency created by Jeremy Bloom and Jaq Greenspon Guidelines - writers SPECIAL FOR HORROR WRITERS - click here for additional guidelines. NO: novel excerpts, swords & sorcery, media tie-ins, parody. Poetry by invitation only. We are primarily looking for NEW material -- reprints will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Length: Our primary interest (read: your best bet to sell to us) is stories of 2,000 words or less. We'll consider up to 5,000 words. Short-shorts of under 1,000 words are especially needed. Style: Since our listeners won't want to hit the rewind button every twenty seconds, clear syntax and non-experimental structures are mandatory. Long passages in colorful alien dialect will also be problematical. Strong science is good; strong characters are better; both together would be best. And let's emphasize one more time: strong plotting is the foundation. "Slice of life" stories, even really cool alien life, are not what we're looking for. Payment: Frequency pays 3 cents per word for exclusive AUDIO rights. In addition, stories are sold as MP3 downloads through the website at approximately $1 per story. Authors receive a 20 percent royalty on those internet sales.. Submissions: Electronic submissions are preferred, to submissions@FrequencyPublishing.com. Please send in Word, text or rich text, in professional format (typed, double-spaced, one side of the page, include word count AND YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS ON THE FRONT PAGE OF THE STORY - this may seem obvious, but experience has taught me that it's not, and I can't reply if I don't have your email address). Hardcopy submissions to: PO Box 2711, Venice CA 90294. Please feel free to send several stories at a time. Response: We will happily respond by email; for regular mail, please include an appropriately sized, self-addressed, stamped envelope (SASE). (Contributors residing outside the United States should use international reply coupons.) Even if you do not want your manuscript returned, we require a letter-size SASE for a surface-mail response; manuscripts without an SASE will not be returned. A couple of closing thoughts: We have a couple of free stories up on our Downloads page - check them out to see the kinds of things we're buying. We also encourage you to purchase a CD - that's the best way to find out what we're looking for. Or you can WIN a CD - duck over to our contest and sign up. We also encourage you to help out SciFiAudio by using the links on our shopping page (or around the site) if you're purchasing books from Amazon, or getting electronics, CDs, movie tickets, or other fun stuff. Send us your friends, too.
The more money we get from this stuff, the more volumes of Frequency
we can put out, and the more stories we can buy... Finally,
may we recommend a great new service from Citibank? I don't know about
you, but I'm tired of getting a check from my parents, or from friends
out of state, and having the bank tell me it'll take 10 business days
to clear. With
Guidelines - Artist
What to send: Send four to ten samples
of your best work. DO NOT SEND ORIGINALS. Color copies, slides, transparencies,
