My Name: Matthew Sanborn Smith. My NEW challenge: Write 1000 stories before I die. Current story count: 200.
The One-Thousand is made up of stories that are aimed at publication in professional venues.
I've been published at Tor.com, Apex, and Nature, among others. See everything I do at matthewsanbornsmith.com. Shoot me an e-mail at upwithgravity@gmail.com
I just sent out story 169, "The Substitute Secret Agent." It's a meta meditation on American capitalism, loneliness, and responsibility. I think it's one of the best things I've ever done. As always, editors may disagree.
