I submitted my short story Pete’s Plan to Asimov’s Science Fiction Magazine a few weeks ago.
This week they sent me a note to say, “it does not suit the needs of the
magazine at this time”. I was disappointed, but people were supportive.
The magazine encouraged me to submit the story elsewhere. I
plan to do that, but I am in procrastination mode. They didn't really say why
they rejected it, so I wonder if I should try to rewrite it before I do. On the
other hand, I don’t really know why they didn’t want it.
If you would like to give the story a read over and let me
know what you think, I would appreciate it.
I think it is a good little story. Before I submitted it, I
read some stories from a Best SF of the year anthology from a couple of years
back. I found some good ones, but many of them were disappointing, so I felt
mine would be acceptable. I wonder if it is too political for them.
