I finished the first draft of my story Felix. It is a science fiction story set on Mars. I based it on a
Lovecraft story. I added 3,100 words this week and the first draft came in a
little over 8,000 words.
It really needs a rewrite though. I’ll do at least one more
draft, maybe two, before I start to look for some volunteer beta readers. I’ll
leave it for a few weeks before I start on a rewrite. That will let me work on
my other science fiction story, Heat Wave.
I resubmitted my short story Pete’s Plan to another science
fiction magazine. This is the fourth submission now. I didn’t rewrite it again as
I did after the first couple of submissions.
Someone sent me a link to a website that lists a whole bunch
of places to submit science fiction stories: ralan.com.
It listed 42 professional magazines, and over 100 semi-pro and amateur
magazines. I hope that at least one of them will want my story.
By the way, if you would like to help me and volunteer to be
a beta reader, please get in touch with me. Thanks.
