An Exercise in Futility

After spending the last several months attempting to find someone, anyone, willing to pay me to write for them, I've come to the conclusion that there are too many people shilling their talents in this arena for me to have a shot at this. Or, possibly, I'm just a terrible writer. Therefore, I've decided to start this blog in the hopes of honing my craft while giving anonymous strangers the ability to lambast my every word. Enjoy!

A Sweet Freedom

Someone I know is starting a quarterly online magazine with a free subscription. Since I'd like to get published someday, I figured it wouldn't hurt to curry a little favor where I can:

A new fiction magazine will debut January 1, 2008.

Noctem Aeternus will be a FREE quarterly PDF magazine where the
reader will find science fiction, fantasy, western, or even mystery
stories…but all tales will have an element of horror.

"The horror genre sometimes gets a bad reputation for being the
shock jocks of the literary field," Editor Michael Knost said. "You
can find plenty of blood and guts, but sometimes there is no story
among the gore. Noctem Aeternus will be a quality fiction magazine,
focusing on the story and its characters."

The first issue will include a short story (and interview) from
master storyteller Ramsey Campbell. Ramsey Campbell is perhaps the
world's most honored author of horror fiction. He has won four World
Fantasy Awards, ten British Fantasy Awards, three Bram Stoker
Awards, and the Horror Writer's Association's Lifetime Achievement
Award.
