Deadlines

I have been working on a project with a bunch of tight deadlines this summer. Phew. Deadlines are very challenging! They can cause a writer to prioritize and drop less important tasks. But they can also be great motivators to get things done.
We have started working on the awesome August 2024 issue of Electric Spec!

The most important deadline for writers is our submission deadline of July 15, 2024. Get those stories in!
Good luck!
