Re: Searching for Character-focused writing and photography
Sun, May 3, 2009 - 3:38 PMHas anyone in this group made a career out of writing? Seems like quality short stories aren't treasured enough. I always thought publications paying up instead of asking for the reverse could cause some better reading. Stuff that dosen't qualify goes to the shredder. Maybe this is an exception. -

Re: Searching for Character-focused writing and photography
Tue, May 5, 2009 - 12:43 AMI agree with you, the short story form isn't treasured enough. Conclave doesn't ask for any submission fees (*only* for the contest, and even that gets you a free copy of the journal and the rest goes into the prize itself). As a young journal that is not connected with a university or university press, we can only afford to pay in contributor's copies at this time.
It is my goal to change that as we grow, secure grant monies etc (we are a tax-deductible nonprofit in the US).
I sincerely hope to someday be able to pay the writers for their work. I think it's important.
In the meantime, we are dedicated to showcasing the best of what we receive, new and established writers.
