I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Open Anthology Calls

For all those writers out there, in case you missed them.

John Joseph Adams (aka the Slush God) has announced an open call for his anthology "Federations." This is your basic Space Opera set up. Five cents per word up to 5000 words, not shabby at all. Plus, John is a nice guy.

Eric Reynolds over at Hadley Rille books and Jay Lake are editing an anthology called "Footprints." They announced the basic story is aliens find out footprints on Earth's Moon. Humans are long gone. What do these aliens make of this? Flat payment of $40 on publication for 4000-10000 words. Eric has been doing some good work, several short stories he has publish in his anthos have been nominated for awards.
