I’ve been editing The Harrow for over ten years, and this series will summarize the advice I’d give a beginning writer.
After your story has been accepted, it’s going to be proofread and edited. Professional zines may have a full complement of proofreaders and copy editors, but most likely, the section editor or editor in chief […]

I’ve been editing The Harrow for over ten years, and this series will summarize the advice I’d give a beginning writer.
You see the letter or email with the editor’s name on it, and your breath catches a moment. This is it — are you going to be dancing or dejected?
The most common decision a fiction […]

One sad fact about The Harrow’s growth is that I don’t have as much direct contact with fiction submissions as I did. So it’s always a pleasant surprise to see what a good job our reviewers and section editor have done in choosing stories when I finally sit down and begin editing them. March’s issue […]

I’ve been editing The Harrow for over ten years, and this series will summarize the advice I’d give a beginning writer.

I’ve been editing The Harrow for over ten years, and this series will summarize the advice I’d give a beginning writer.

I’ve been editing The Harrow for over ten years, and this series will summarize the advice I’d give a beginning writer.
The first thing you need to do is decide where you should submit your short story (or poem, or article, but I’m going to assume genre fiction here). If you’re a beginning writer and […]

John Scalzi has written an excellent list detailing what it is to be poor. As a writer, I appreciate the insight he provides. But the essay is not only useful as a writer’s reference, but it also provokes interesting reflection on one’s past and experiences.
I’ve been fortunate enough to never live in true poverty. […]

I’m still waiting to hear the verdict on my submission to Permuted Press’s cross-genre Cthulhu anthology; just got an email saying that the editor has left the anthology and the second volume might not make. That will be disappointing, if true. I’m really hoping my story is accepted; I had a load of fun writing […]

When I spent three months on sabbatical in Venice, Italy, I fulfilled a dream to live in that magical city but didn’t get nearly as much writing done as I’d expected. I thought living in such a beautiful place would inspire me, but in fact it was so beautiful that I loathed the thought of […]
