Summary

Anthology submissions are a different beast from novel queries; tighter themes, harder deadlines, and a slush pile that seems to either moves fast or not at all. In this episode, hosts/authors Steve Diamond and Larry Correia break down the dos and don'ts of getting your short fiction picked: what editors actually want, formatting mistakes that get you an instant pass, and how to handle rejection without torching the relationship for next time.
