If you write science fiction or fantasy and have a short story you think is worth getting out to the world, why not submit it to Orson Scott Card’s Intergalactic Medicine Show? The IGMS
pays 6 cents per word up to 7,500 and 5 cents per word thereafter, which means for a quick 7,500 word story that fits their guidelines, you have the opportunity to net a nice little payment for $450.00, and of course, it just goes up from there. (That’s 0.06 * 7500 = $450.00)
They only take the rights to your story for one year, and after that you’re free to submit it to other anthologies or publishers. If they choose to reprint it, you get more royalties. Not a bad plan at all, if you ask me.
(Now where’d I put that old story???)
