Write a Steemit post that falls under the speculative fiction umbrella and post a link to it in the Speculative Fiction room of the SFWS Discord server. Each week, Garden Gnome Publications will feature one story from each author that is in good standing.
If you’re not sure if your story is speculative fiction, ask if it easily falls into the science fiction, fantasy, or horror categories. If not, it’s probably not spec-fic. We have a posting room for anything that is not speculative fiction (#non-specfic-promo).
Featured Spec-Fic Writer
To be featured here, you need to be actively posting speculative fiction on your Steemit blog and be a part of our community. This week’s featured author is @cyemela
Speculative Fiction Writers of Discord and Garden Gnome Publications are looking for a few contributors. You’ll be rewarded handsomely for your contributions. These are the positions we’re looking to fill:
Community Evangelist – We’re looking for an outgoing individual to help manage the community, welcome new members, moderate discussions, and inspire the other member to contribute more. Get a promotion to Fictionista (the highest rank in our Discord server) and higher curation rewards.
Create a unique banner for the Spec-Fic Parade – See the top image of this newsletter? Can you create a masthead just for the Parade. You’ll get credit, see your work in print every week, and get rewarded for your efforts.
Blog Editor – Publish once a week to the Flim Flam Bush and read submissions, read flash fiction submissions, accept the ones you like, and publish them on the Garden Gnome Publications blog.
Imprint Editor – Like being an editor? Start your own imprint under the Garden Gnome Publications umbrella. I’ll train you to put out a call for submissions, help select the best ones, and train you to publish in print and digital formats. Earn 50% of the profits from your imprint.
Got Your Own Ideas? – See a way we can improve? We’re open to ideas. Share your ideas and if we implement them, you’ll be rewarded for helping us out.
Until now, Garden Gnome Publications has been a labor of love, run by one guy in his pajamas (and his toe stuck in the soil). If you love speculative fiction and want to see it grow on the Steem blockchain, if you’d like to be a part of a speculative fiction publishing effort and help grow GGP into a profitable spec-fic publishing enterprise, come on board. Don’t make me do it all myself!
