“Throwback Thursday” seems like a good time to share some markets that accept reprints. I searched through my weekly calendar mailout to pull out 10 submission calls that are right around the corner. Go check your contracts and let some of your previous work have yet another day in the sun. I send my calendar out every Wednesday, and this week it included:
- 40 open submissions
- 6 events for authors

I never share your email with anyone and sign up is free. Click here to be included.

May 1-2: Cosmic Roots and Eldritch Snores is open for new work
ELDRITCH SNORES ? lol
