If you've seen my social media, you'll know that I've had THREE short story acceptances lately! I'm so excited.


But I've been getting a lot of questions: where do I submit my short stories? How do I find anthologies open? The answer is simple. I check these websites:


Horror Tree

Duotrope

Submission Grinder

Chill Subs


Those four are great for listing magazines and publishers that are open to short stories and poetry. Make sure to always read the guidelines and deadlines before you submit.


So far, these are the publishers I've submitted to during their open submission periods:


Dragon Soul Press

Inky Bones Press

Cloaked Press

Oddity Prodigy

Cohesion Press

Brigid's Gate Press

Fraidy Cat Press

Bag of Bones

Burial Books

Promised Protagonists

Zombies Need Brains

Graveside Press

Frost Zone Press

Terrorcore Publishing

Stars and Sabers

Iron Fang Press/Dark Canadiana


Happy writing, and good luck!
