People who write short fiction tend to develop a love-hate relationship with their mail. To read about one writer's mailbox blues, visit the home page of Mary Soon Lee, a talented short story writer who has sold to The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, Interzone, and many other magazines. You will also find some good information on return times from magazines, as well as links to other writing resources.


Lisa Silverthorne Purvis has sold many fine short stories. Her work has appeared in Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy Magazine, Sword and Sorceress XII, Galaxay, and Blood Muse, among other places. We discuss the vagaries of the short fiction market, the novel writing process, the ups and downs of our pets, and many other topics via email. Lisa's front page is very sharp looking indeed.



Kim Headlee, excellent writer and critiquer, has just sold her wonderful first novel, Dawnflight: The Legend of Guinevere. Way to go, Kim! Her page has some good writing information and links.
