Do you have a ready-for-the-world, short story or essay, burning a hole in your pocket? Here are a few of my favorite literary magazines, all currently open to on-line submissions.
You can’t win if you don’t play. Get your work out there!
It’s my birthday. Make me happy — submit your stories and let me know how it goes.
Good luck!
Fantastic – and happy birthday!
Thanks, Helen.
Happy Birthday again Teri!
Did you watch the Murray/Robson doubles match? I plan to spend the whole day watching tennis tomorrow.
Oh my god, Downith, I’m in tennis heaven. I’ll be watching all of tomorrow too. Did you see the Williams/Sharapova match? What a trouncing.
I know. What was up with that? She’s not having a good season – crashed out of Wimbledon too.
Thank you! For a great list and a useful reminder. Hope you have a terrific birthday.
I hope you can use it. Good luck!
Just fired off a story I like a lot to about a half dozen of these. Thanks for the motivation!
Oh, and it seems it’s your birthday! Happy B-Day! =)
Thanks, Les. And good for you! My fingers are crossed.
Oh, happy birthday to JoJo’s dear mum! Hope your day has been a celebration and that the party lasts long into the night, my friend.
This list is certainly a gift to all of US. Thank you for it!
Thanks, Erika!
Thank you! I don’t really have anything to send, but I will bookmark all of these. I’ve been looking for literary magazines to follow in hopes of future submissions! Thanks and happy birthday!
Great. Save them for when you need them. I just followed my own advice and sent out some work. Fingers crossed.
Happy Birthday! (a day late)
Thanks, Paul. And you’re not late at all, because I claim the whole week as my birthday.
Happy birthday, Teri! (Better late than never.)
XOXO
Thanks. And no short submissions for you, missy —- you have a new book to write!
For story brevity, I was always amazed by Hemingway (at least I think is was him or so the fable goes), whose six word novel was “For sale, baby shoes. Never worn.” Happy birthday, my dear bride. I admire you, particularly your generous spirit.
Woo hoo! May this be the golden year of submissions!
I hear it all comes to fruition when you hit 30. Let me know if I’m right!
xoxo
Happy Birthday, Teri!! I am going down this list TODAY. xo
i’m a day late and a story short here, but what a gift to give on your birthday no less.
thanks for the list!
For journals that take summer submissions: http://dianelockward.blogspot.com/2011/05/summer-journals-g-thru-p.html
It’s directed toward poetry, but many of the journals take fic and nonfic too.
