Such Great Heights asked:


I’m always hearing that people publish short stories in magazines, but I’ve never read a single magazine that has a short story with a plot and characters. Can you name me some magazines I could publish a short story in?

I live in tropical country and I have idea that students from other countries get to write short stories as their school assignments and creative writing is actually a formal subject they teach in school. Is this really true? I wish I could study in that way….

I have been using Duotrope.com but it is not giving statistics anymore and I am looking for the title of the book that recommends places to submit short stories to. Thank you!

I wrote two short stories that most people who have read say they are very, very good. Does anyone have any information about where I could submit my stories for publication?

Lindsay asked:


For example, if one magazine wants to publish a short story are you allowed to also have it published by another magazine? Should you only submit short stories to one magazine at a time and wait to see if it publishes or rejects it before submitting the story to another?

Any links you can offer to help explain more in depth are also greatly appreciated.

Masterblaster asked:


I am trying to get a few short stories published in preparation for when I shop a novel I am currently writing. I have found search engines that list all the publications that are out there, but I have no clue which ones are reputable. I have written fantasy stories, realistic horror stories and “post-modernesque” stories about relationships. Any suggestions?
*** I understand the publication process. I am simply looking for a few specific names that would be recognizable to a book agent.

My passion is creative writing and my teachers have reccomended that I submit some of my short stories to magazines…. I’ve been searching online, but can’t really find any magazines open to teen writing so please help? I am 16 years old. Thanks.

I need some really good short stories that have deeper meaning/provoke thought. They should be less than about 15 pages. THe less the better. I am compiling a book of short stories, and I already have a lot of scary/creepy ones, so preferably not those types, although if that’s all you can think of then that’s fine
