Suggest Stories for the Million Writers Award anthologies

Early next year Spotlight Publishing, which recently published my short story collection Never Never Stories, will release two anthologies of Million Writers Awards stories. I will edit both anthologies, which are titled:

  • Million Writers Award: The Best Online Science Fiction and Fantasy
  • Million Writers Award: The Best New Online Voices

These anthologies will feature stories from the last eight years of the storySouth Million Writers Award. I'm currently pulling together table of contents for both books, but I wanted to also offer readers and writers the opportunity to suggest stories for inclusion. After all, a key aspect of the Million Writers Award is that the public has a voice in the award process. I'd like it to be the same with these anthologies.

Here's the deal: only stories which made the award's notable story list, top ten list, or won the award are eligible for consideration. The Million Writers Award: The Best Online Science Fiction and Fantasy is, obviously, focused on those respected genres. Million Writers Award: The Best New Online Voices focuses on the most exciting new and upcoming authors who have had stories in the award over the last eight years. If you'd like to suggest stories, either use the comment box below or email your picks to me. Be sure to mention which anthology your suggestions are for.

Pasted below are links to the last eight years of Million Writers Award stories. If you have some suggestions, please send them to me by September 20th.
