We were showed a bunch of websites to aid in our search for a good publisher (right now, I'm painfully aware that saying "we" and "our" is sounding pretty... Queenly. I assure you, I'm talking about me and my class, and not me and the people who live inside my head-bones).
Just for now, I'm linking what was shared in class. At the end, I'll post a few links from my own bookmarks, and as always, I encourage you guys to comment and add your own suggestions, too!
Duotrope's Digest. To find a bajillion publications to submit to, just fill in the drop-down menus and hit the not-so-shiny search button to spring up hundreds (or less, depending on how much info you decided to put in) of publication options right there at your fingertips. Shows you what they look for, what they pay, if they pay... all that happy stuff.
Some highly popular magazine and onine publications:
Weird TalesFantasy MagazineFantasy and Science FictionLady Churchill's Rosebud WristletPrick of the SpindleLocus
Some books to buy (you find a story that's just your style? Check the back of the book to see where it was published):
BooklifeYear's Best Fantasy and HorrorYear's Best Science FictionYear's Best FantasySome authors' blogs and sites to check out (if you like someone's stuff, check out their blog, follow 'em, and even comment. Good comments will get your name out there, and if you have your own blog, link your profile!):
Right. That's it for class notes. On with some of my own links (I'm at work, so right now it's just off the top of my brain-thing)...
Don't judge me:
(sorry I don't have a lot of author sites I follow. I mostly follow art blogs. I also don't have a list of publications that I regularly collect that are pen-centric that haven't already been mentioned above)
Now I demand that you all comment and add more! MORE!
