For years , the fact that the “ big three ” science fiction magazines do n’t accept electronic fable submissions has been a source of bafflement among SF writers . But Asimov ’s Science Fiction Magazine editor Sheila Williams announced she ’ll be taking einsteinium - subs starting today .
Shetold SF Signal ’s Charles A. Tan :
I pass much of my working sidereal day committal to writing , editing , and doing yield work on a laptop . magnanimous - scale reading on a backlit computer screen has never appealed to me . I ’ve treasure many aspects of an electronic submission system for sometime , though . I purchased a big - sized [ e - book ] reader last summertime with the hope that it would offer me some of the reward of learn a book or a magazine without giving me the added asthenopia of a calculator . My electronic reviewer has been a everlasting joyfulness . I can carry around my newspaper , back issue of Asimov ’s , the New Yorker , Shakespeare , Sherlock Holmes , Thucydidies , and The Windup Girl , and scan any one of them whenever I feel like it . I ’ve already experiment with a few manuscripts and have found that they are well-situated to show and to take preeminence on .

I ’ve also been concerned about international submission for a while . In addition to the high costs and the trouble generator encounter when they seek to find international reply coupons or U.S. stamp , the chain mail service is n’t wholly reliable — I never have Gord Sellar ’s first submission and Somtow Sucharitkul has had to express - mail material to me from Thailand . I ’ve even found that parts of Canada can be difficult to pass by mail . I ’ve already been beta essay the new organisation with a numeral of generator living outside the US and I ’ve been delighted with the ease with which the system works .
