$1,000 for 1,000 Word Romance
Who: Woman’s World Magazine
What: Contemporary romance fiction.
How: Woman’s World romances are short contemporaries about average people. No billionaires, or werewolves, or historical settings, or sci-fi. Just 1,000 words about a love between a man and woman, whether they’re falling in love for the first time or they’ve been together for decades and are falling in love again after an estrangement.
How long: 1,000 words.
How much: $ 1,000
Is there a catch? Yes, two.
1. According to SFReader.com, Woman’s World Magazine receives 2,500 romance and mystery submissions every month. Ouch.
2. Woman’s World is rarely carried by local libraries, so you have to buy copies to see what kind of story they want.
Where: Snail mail.
