Submitting Your Stories

You must be a member of International Thriller Writers, Inc. to post your stories on ThrillerWire.

Choose ThrillerWire (add a story). Follow the simple steps to upload your story.

No pornography or extreme violence is allowed. All submissions are staff monitored.

Violators will be immediately kicked off and membership suspended.

Featured Picks

Every submission is automatically considered by our editorial staff for a possible Five-Star Pick, to be featured on our main ThrillerWire page. Picks and their display on our feature page are solely at the discretion of our editors.

Look in MY ACCOUNT to see if you have been chosen as a "featured" author. Allow up to 14 days for the evaluation.

ThrillerWire at Authorlink.com is working to get ThrillerWire-featured authors considered for other shorts programs, including online short story sites, anthologies, and on-air author programs.

Royalty Payments

Each story you post earns you $0.40 per paid user download. You can track your royalties earned and paid, overall and by story, by logging in and visiting your MY ACCOUNT page.

Deferred Royalty Payment. We pay you within 15 days of the close of each calendar quarter, if at that time the total royalties due you amounts to at least $50. Lesser amounts will be carried over to the next quarter until they total $50 or more. Payment is made either in the form of a check mailed to the Ship To address in MY ACCOUNT or to your Paypal account.

All royalty payments are based upon our accounting department's verified paid sales. Authors will not be compensated for incomplete or unverified downloads.
