5 days agoWhen I was first publishing short stories, the best single piece of advice I received was to use thegrinder.diabolicalplots.com It’s a repository of (most) journals and magazines that publish short stories/novellas. Definitely skews more SFF than strictly literary, but it was truly revolutionary in getting my stories to actual publications. I think it does poetry as well, but poetry was always way too difficult for me lol.
Also, if you want someone to beta read your stories just shoot me a DM and I’ll be happy to provide feedback/tips :) Good luck, and don’t get discouraged by rejections in the beginning!
No worries :) one of the better kept secrets in selling short stories for sure
