(Required)  Please take a moment to be cordial and say hello.  I am an easy going and friendly person to work with and I am looking for the same in any writer or artist I do business with.Follow the red forum link on the HQ page at: <a href="http://www.rocketshipempires.com" target="_blank">www.rocketshipempires.com</a>2.  Obtain a copy of the Rocketship Empires 1936 core campaign setting. (Recommended)  We are looking for writers interested and enthusiastic in writing for our setting.  Most science fiction and fantasy magazines strongly recommend that writers at least pick up a single copy of their magazine so that they understand the content the publisher is looking for.  Purchasing a copy is certainly not required, just recommended.     While the core campaign book will be most useful to you ($8.99) you may be able to glean enough information between the website and the less expensive starship book ($6.99) to submit a successful sample.  If you are confident and have exceptional talent you may give your submission a shot without reading anything about the setting.  Sample pages of the core setting .pdf are available at the purchase portal.  If you are on a budget you can glean some information and get a basic sense of the setting off the sample .pdfs.       If you are hired you will obviously receive free copies of every book we produce.3.  Submit a 1,000 word piece of short fiction based in the Rocketship Empires 1936 universe.When you sign up for the forum simply send me (Edward) a private message to say hello.  I will forward to you my personal email addy where you can send your writing submission / sample as an attachment.4.  Submissions will be judged on.     Creativity     Amount of key content from the RE 1936 setting incorporated into the piece.  The piece should contain at least some references to the setting material.  More than a passing comment about Martians or space travel is advised.     Grammar and SpellingRemember.  Picking up a copy of the setting is not required.  Joining the forums and at least investing the time to make introductions, read over what is available in the forums and gain some passing knowledge of the setting is definately a requirement.  If someone can't be bothered to invest the little time necessary to learn something about the setting, well...what can I say.  We won't likely be interested in hiring them.The more someone is willing to show us they are serious about learning the setting and submit good material the more seriously we are likely to take their submission.</blockquote>
