No, I didn't spell it like that by mistake. http://www.ralan.com/antho/listings/tabloidpur6.htm I feel hallucinated just reading the guidelines. |

I got as far as genreeclectic and gave up. But the bad grammar was pretty special too. |

"I am just reminding people one reason why I don't allow erotic content in a Tabloid, I do believe in God, but I want to see Bizarro fiction that is written clean but having elements of horror and literary fiction thrown in there." A case of the guidelines saying more about the editor than the publication. Bring on the gruesome Satanic deaths, but no sex please, I believe in God. "I am not looking for alternative romance or alternative erotica (do I have spell out what that is?)" Methinks the editor doth protest too much. |

I also find this idea of Bizarro fiction pretty bloody tiresome. |

What's worse? Feeling you have to sub something there in the first place, or getting the rejection letter? |

Yes I got dizzy reading that. and from some random post about the press: 'Yeah, this is the guy who claims Stephen King is stealing his ideas telepathically. I wish I was making that up.' HA! |
