short story market skim
Oct. 9th, 2010 02:10 pmNeed to do a quick scan of the market listings on ERA and erotic_authors to see if there's anything that might suit short stories I have on file. I used to do this regularly for inspiration as well, but given my current output rate there's not much point in that other than if something insists on being written. (Which hasn't happened for a while, which in itself tells you something about how badly going back to a day job hammered my creative energy.)

Oral sex, deadline 15 Jan, 1500-5000, $50 + 2xtrib
Not sure I have anything, but I'd like to write something for it. Could find the notebook with #10 and finish that.

various themes and deadlines, 2-4k, L50
#36 Tea Ceremony might work for "sex at work" if they accept m/m - deadline 30 October so need to revise fast.

Damn it. I *want* to write something for this (Circlet often come up with antho themes that I find interesting), but I don't have any ideas...

1-4k, 5c/word
possible: 009 A Sparrow Flies Through
Not seeing anything appropriate for #38 Bread and Butter Pudding at the moment. I suppose I could use it as a tester for one of the self-publishing outlets, but I should probably just pay more attention to short story markets and Do Something about it before deadline when I see a possible market (of which there have been a couple this year I managed to miss).
