Interzone magazine for SF and fantasy, open for submissions of up to 10,000 words. The publisher, TTA Press also do Black Static magazine (horror) and Crimewave magazine, your guess is as good as mine on subject matter :).

Thanks for putting up the list Daeds. I’ve a hankering for doing some short work again, as I’ve done nowt…[Read more]

Though they’re not currently accepting submissions, Shoreline of Infinity (mainly SF) magazine and Luna Press (SF, fantsy and dark fantasy) are worth keeping in mind.

Thanks Stevie, looks great

Albedo 1 might be worth a look for fantasy, SF and horror. They have four submission windows per year (next on is July) and pay 6 euro per 1000 words.

I wouldn’t worry about agents etc. If you send a Word document then they will understand that it should be viewed in Word; it’s usually what they ask for. I think your problem is that either your browser or Google Docs or whatever gmail uses for previews isn’t displaying Times New Roman properly.

There are things you can try to fix it, such as…[Read more]

Great list – thanks 🙂

Thanks Raine, will take a look and add details to the list

Also, entropy magazine takes eclectic stuff, and very usefully keeps a ‘where to submit’ page for all formats of writing. They update it every 3 months I think.

No problem Kate. No point my compiling a list and not giving others the benefit of it. And given my patchy record with subs I’m glad if anyone uses it. It needs a bit of updating, mind

This is brilliant. I’m glad I asked! What a fabulous source of info.

Are you using gmail’s webmail service?

I just had a quick try and noticed that when I clicked on a Word document, it was opened in Google Docs and not Word. My suspicion is that Word is fine but there’s something wrong with the way gmail is rendering Times New Roman. If that’s the case, then a fix depends on what browser you’re using and what…[Read more]

I guess not. Google “troubleshooting font problems in word”, you should find this:

Assuming this link works!

I wonder too 🙂

Can I ask for a bit of clarification? If you type out some text in Word using Times New Roman, it looks fine. When you send that as an email attachment and subsequently view it, it appears blurry and hard to read.

At the risk of sounding daft, how are you viewing the attachments? Do you open them with Word, i.e. if Word isn’t…[Read more]

It’s a strange one isn’t it? I wonder if @athelstone can help?

Hi Jean,
I can’t be much help with this, I’m afraid. I have roughly the same set up, but not encountered any problems with fonts. I wonder if it’s worth running all the usual system tests (full virus scan, defragmenting), or perhaps uninstalling and reinstalling word? Another option might be to upload files into Google Docs and re-save there…[Read more]

I downloaded it on the boat on the way home and it’s fantastic.
