  • When 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!

  • I’m tempted to just laugh at mbfc being used as a gotcha, but I’m still bummed that it got this much cultural inertia behind it. It’s sort of like quoting an uncited Wikipedia article at someone to prove you’re right.
