PLEASE read the guidelines before submitting.
Length requirements: 1500-40,000 words
Size of website: 400 Pages
Payment & Comments: Mind's Eye Fiction provides high
quality fiction on the Internet. We do this by providing a
financial incentive for professional authors and editors to
participate in the Internet, while keeping the cost and
inconvenience to our readers as low as possible. Our mission is
to improve the quality of fiction available on the Internet.
The overall quality of fiction on the Internet is very poor. One
of the reasons for this is lack of adequate payment mechanisms
for work performed. Relatively recently, on-line monetary
transaction systems with adequately low transaction fees have
been developed. These systems allow authors to charge low unit
prices for their on-line work, but to maintain enough of a profit
margin to provide a financial incentive to publish in this new
and growing medium.
Mind's Eye Fiction requires editorial review of all pieces of
fiction before they are placed on the Internet. This review
provides you, the reader, some level of assurance that you will
find a higher quality of fiction here than, say, in one of the
round-robin USENET newsgroups. Our reputation is based on the
quality of the work seen by you, the readers. If we publish bad
fiction, we'll get a just reputation for bad fiction.
Our editorial staff works either on a commission basis or on an
up-front fee basis. Authors are paid by check. If you have a
story you'd like to submit to Mind's Eye Fiction, please review
our submission guidelines then send it to mindseye@tale.com

more for awhile. (We'll let you know when we are ready for them
again.) We like to use one urban ghetto story per issue. i.e. THE
COLLECTORS, ON HIS OWN,GEEZERS.)We don't get enough of these. We

Writer's
Guidelines
Critiques rejected manuscripts: Occasionally
Rights: One time rights for the *paid* articles. We do
have a short story contest that has different rights- see the web
site.
Looking for: Comics, Jokes and Mystery Fiction. No
explicit sex or gore.
Nonfiction: Author interviews, profiles and essays related to the
mystery field. We have a "real life" private
investigator column. We would also like to look at reporter-like
features about mystery events and trip/cruises themed around
mystery (for example, a report on Bouchercon or a staged mystery
dinner theater for charity in your home town). We would like to
see anything that would be of interest to mystery fans. We like
to have variety in our issues (something for the hardboiled as
well as cozy fan).
Length requirements: Up to 5,000 words
Size of website: 8 pages
Payment: At present, payment is $30-50 depending upon
length and detailed research involved. Author also receives a
complimentary copy of the magazine. Book reviews are 400-600
words. Book reviews do not receive payment at this time. They do
however, receive the book (usually hardback) we send them for
free & a complimentary copy of the magazine. Short story
contest winners receive a percentage of the entry fees (1st= 20%,
2nd= 10%, and 3rd = 5%) and 15% of the entry fees go to charity.
Comments: FICTION: We publish the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place
winners of the short story contest and usually one other fiction
piece per issue. So the math is that if your work is fiction it
has a better shot getting published through the short story
contest. The short story contest entry fee is only $5. See the
website for full short story contest guidelines. Tips: Write a
story you'd like to read. We tend to like stories that move along
at a good pace and that have pro-active characters. By that I
mean, they don't just bumble through things. They cause things to
happen or they actively investigate things. We like strong
beginnings. I'm not interested in what colors the clouds look
like in the first sentence of a story unless it has something to
do with the action of the story. P.S. We don't care if you've
ever been published before. NON-FICTION: We usually have two
author interviews per issue, a Mystery Bookstore Profile, one
"news" type piece about something in the industry, and
two other features. You may query us by email about your story
idea. We want variety of types of articles and sub-genre.
How To Submit: We prefer and nice printed copy. If
accepted we like to have them send us the work pasted into an
email message for saving time in the typesetting process. We will
accept submissions via email as long as they are NOT encrypted or
misc. attached files. Email submissions should have a cover
letter type introduction to them. Don't just send a story and we
have to figure out if it's a submission for the short story
contest or a freelance fiction piece. We do allow simultaneous
submissions, but please indicate so on your manuscript and give
us an e-mail address or phone number so that we can verify
quickly if it's still on the market. Since we're monthly, we have
to move quickly.

Critiques rejected manuscripts: Rarely
Rights: We hold all rights. We do this primarily because
it relieves us of the chore of having to track down the author
every time a professor wants to xerox an article for classroom
use. We make it a practice to grant authors permission to reprint
their own work promptly, and we never grant another publication
permission to reprint without contacting the author first.
Looking for: Fiction: Literary and Humor. Issues have
different themes.
Each issue of Now & Then focuses on one aspect of life in the
Appalachian region (anywhere hilly from Northern Mississippi on
up to the Southern Tier of New York). Therefore, we're interested
in reviewing any fiction or articles, that (1) relate to a
specific upcoming theme -- and see our writers' guidelines for
upcoming themes -- and (2) is written about the region, by
someone from the region, or by someone currently living in the
region.
- Nonfiction: Again, Each issue of Now & Then focuses

specific upcoming theme -- and see our writers' guidelines for
upcoming themes -- and (2) is written about the region, by

region.
We cover the entire Appalachian region, 13 states running down
along the mountain chain from the Southern Tier of New York State
to Northern Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and the northwest
corner of South Carolina. If a submission isn't about the region
and doesn't fit the theme, we will have to reject it, no matter
how superb it is.
Length requirements: No Now & Then articles exceed
3,000 words.
Size of website: pages
Payment: We pay $15 per typeset page, so that most
payments run anywhere from $15 to $75. We pay $10 per review
(plus the reviewer gets to keep the book, obviously), and we pay
$10 per poem.
Comments: Make sure you've read the writers' guidelines.
