Every month we'll e-mail a link to access our FREE e-newsletter, which features updates on new anthology story submission opportunities as well as other sales opportunities for your writing. We'll also include tips for improving aspects of your writing. See back issues below.

Benefits of Subscribing? You will receive free access to the most-current e-newsletter before we post it to the website for everyone to view! You can opt out of our list at any time, and we don't sell or give our list to anyone!

And when something really hot comes along, such as Chicken Soup for the Soul needing ten last-minute stories for an upcoming title, you'll be one of the first to hear about it. But only if you've signed up for our FREE e-newsletter!

PLEASE REMEMBER: If you have your e-mail security set too high, the monthly
e-newsletter notification may be kicked out as SPAM!
