New market for very short fiction (1k words)


STEPHEN D. ROGERS PRESENTS is an online quarterly publication that showcases one story every January, April, July, and October.

"I'm seeking stories of 1000 words, any genre, with a bare minimum of graphic sex, violence, and obscene language. The story I select will be the one that makes me jump out of my seat in excitement at what the author has accomplished. Stories with a twist are always welcome."

Full guidelines at
http://www.stephendrogers.com/guidelines.htm
Pay is $50 per story.

Does anyone else read this to mean, "there must be some graphic sex, violence, and obscene language"? emoticon


(It's a serious question -- in my job, I'm constantly faced with the decision, "is this choice of words precise enough?" )
