Fortitude: An Experiment
August 3rd 2010 00:07
I've read about Fortitude here and there in the last few weeks but up until now I was sceptical. Until I found out today that they actually charge a membership fee for writers who want to join them. The fee is $23.88 for a year, so it isn't really much but it will scare off the scammers. Especially when you consider that (they say) they pay a minimum of $10 for each submission that is published on their front page.
Thing is, they aren't just looking for news-style articles or how-to articles. They look for any form of writing: opinion pieces, essays, poems and short stories are just as welcome. Now that is really interesting - finally a content website for fiction writers.
I'm not sure if it's worth posting fiction on Fortitude or not, but I'm willing to give it a try. I'm embarking on a fiction experiment with Fortitude. Results will be published here, of course.
