    Submission Process An editor discusses what he wants to see

    Discussion in 'Traditional Publishing' started by AntPoems, Jan 3, 2022.

    David Farland, author and head of the Writers of the Future contest, sent this message out to his mailing list today. He's doing acquisitions for Baen Books and decided to spell out exactly what he's looking for, both in content and in the submission packet. I figured the SF/fantasy novelists here might be interested.

    Well, now there's a sad follow-up to report. Today's newsletter reported that Dave passed away from a stroke at the age of 64 :(. I've never read any of his books, but I got some good tips from his newsletter over the past two years, and he was known for mentoring young writers. He'll be missed, I'm sure.
