- Reposted by Beth GoderOn August 12, 1971, 16-year-old me mailed the first story I ever wrote off on its first submission to my dream market, F&SF. My tale was quickly rejected. On July 17th, 2025, I finally sold a story to that magazine. Here's why I felt I had to withdraw that story. www.scottedelman.com/wordpress/20...

- I will no longer be submitting to F&SF, Analog, and Asimov's while they are published by MRM. I've had stories in F&SF. A story and a novella in Analog. The editors are great. The publisher is not.
