I’m temporarily taking over for Talespinner as chief slave-driver on the ready for market Viking boat.
This challenge is for stories that have been through a critique process from an independent third party (e.g. here in F&F) and are ready to submit to market -- after a final bit of polish in the RFM challenge. Crits are generally short, direct, though polite and constructive and helpful.
Though it might seem obvious that in order to be published, you need to submit stories to markets, the final step of submitting your story can be daunting. The RFM challenge is both a call to arms to submit your story to market and a chance to have another pair of eyes look over your story before it goes out.
Here's how we did it before:

I've kicked it off, feel free to submit your first 13. The more, the merrier.
