Maiden Voyages is a gen multifandom anthology for beginning writers.

Descriptions
From Datazine #1 (1980):
A vehicle through which new talent will be able to gain exposure and experience. Our only requirement for submissions is that you have not been published more than twice. One need not be new to fandom, only to the creative aspects.
From Battlestar Omaha Bulletin (1980):
Maiden Voyages prints new fan writers and artists. Tigh [1] believes MC serves a useful purpose in that it is a beginning for new people, and it exposes them to the sometimes-frustrating complexities of working with an editor.
