The Hugo Award-winning science fiction writer ROBERT J. SAWYER has published a piece here about Robert Heinlein's rules of writing - and has cheekily added one of his own. They're worth reading.
Meanwhile, for all you wannabe SF writers out there, here various Black Library authors give you the lowdown on what you should (and shouldn't) do if you want to make the most of BL's open submissions window this May.
"The modern master of the gamebook format" (Rob Sanders)... "Can do dark very well" (Jonathan Oliver)... "Green gets mileage out of his monsters" (SFX Magazine)... "It takes a firm editorial hand and a keen understanding of the tone of each piece to make a collection this diverse work, and Green makes it look effortless" (Starburst Magazine)... "A charming blend of camp creatures, humour, and genuine horror" (Set the Tape)
