PUB: The Galaxy Project

The Galaxy Project Contest

About the contest


Contest deadline: Friday, September 2, 2011.

The Galaxy Project is both a celebration - through new editions in widely distributed electronic form - of the great 1950's Galaxy Magazine, edited by H. L. Gold and a means through these new electronic editions of classic longer works and through its new novella contest to carry forth that tradition in the new millennium.

The contest to select one novella or novelette will be judged in the spirit of H. L. Gold and the great magazine of which he was founding editor.

Galaxy  was open to all potential contributors in the 1950's and 1960's. Only excellence mattered. The contest will be "open" and judged on the same standards. The winner will:

  • Be published in e-book as part of The Galaxy Project collection.
  • Receive an advance of $1,000 against royalties of 50% of net receipts to 2,500 copies and 60% of net receipts thereafter for world English digital rights.
  • Retain the copyright and all rights other than the initial digital use (per Galaxy Magazine's policy)
