One thought on “Deadman’s Tome – Submission Horror”
You only have to read Deadman’s Tome to realise that there are some really high quality authors published here. We’re talking members of the HWA and guys that have been printed in semi-pro and pro markets. I think it’s disrespectful to the site, to Mr Deadman and to all the other authors on here to submit sub-standard dross and then expect it to get published.
When I woke one morning, and saw that I had been published at DT, I did a little victory dance around my bedroom, I was concerned it’d be another rejection because I was daunted at how high the standard of stories were. That’s the way it should be.
