Your story must be original work, with the digital rights unencumbered. Accepted stories will be paid at the flat rate of 3 cents per word (U.S.), in return for the first publication rights to the story for six months after publication. All other rights will remain with the author. We no longer offer royalties. If your story is selected as the lead story, beginning July 1, 2014, we will pay a flat rate of 6 cents per word (SFWA professional rate), in return for the permission to podcast or give the story away as a free sample portion of the anthology. We also pay SFWA members 6 cents per word. You do not need to be a SFWA member to submit work. We welcome new writers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Third Flatiron will price and market your story to various e-publishing venues. We will format the story for the most popular\u00a0 electronic readers and platforms. You agree that we may distribute a sample (portion of the story) to potential customers.<\/span><\/p>\n

For non-U.S. submissions, we prefer to pay via PayPal, if you have such an account.<\/span><\/p>\n

Authors selected for publication will also be entitled to one free online copy of the anthology.<\/span><\/p>\n
