Prolific writer Ray Bradbury is said to have admonished writers to write one short story every week for a year on the premise that one cannot write 52 bad short stories in a row. I have set out to prove this either right or wrong. These are the rules of the game: 1. Write one short story every week for a year. 2. Send each story out to potential markets as soon as it is written, using Ed Perlman's thesis class advice that getting published takes relentless submission to literary markets. Each story will be queried to 20 markets at any given time. 3. Stories must vary in length, style, voice, point of view and subject matter. Let the experiment begin.
