Richard’s Submissions

Sounds like some sort of S/M site. But really, what I wanted to post up here, was a little bit of information on where I’ve been submitting and what kind of results I’ve been getting. It’s tough out there, but you can do it. Maybe you’ll find some cool new places too. Thanks to http://www.duotrope.com as usual for saving my butt. NOTE: Since I am shopping my novel, Disintegration, there are also presses on here.
