SPACE SQUID OFFERING FREE CRITIQUES

SPACE SQUID zine, listed in your paying section, has declared a personalized critique period for submissions in July and August from our website at:

http://www.spacesquid.com/contributorguidelines.htm

NEW! Caution! Submit now for special abuse!

July through August is the Space Squid plainspeak critique period. All manuscripts submitted in this time will undergo a thorough critiquing. This is your chance to see what editors really think, sometimes line-by-line.

YOU MAY NOT FIND THIS CRITQUE PLEASANT! Authors with delicate sensibilities and an inflated sense of importance ought not submit at this time. Suggestions for improvement do not imply a solicitation for a rewrite and resubmission. That's right -- you may get rejected and told to fix stuff even though it will never be published in the 'zine. The opinions and comments of the critiquing editors represent solely their own world view and do not necessarily represent reality.
