Hey /lit/ /co/mrade here, I'm trying to find a good magazine to try to get some poetry or short stories published in. Any suggestions?
Picture unrelated, it's just me.

And before you ask, I won't post any here. Because I know /lit/'s opinion of any author that isn't a DWM

We don't know your niche
We haven't read your work
This is easily Google-able

That's some pretty high praise. You must be good. I'd like to read some of your work.

well...I'm going to be honest here, I used to have a Myspace, where I posted some of my work trust me, I'm ashamed of it...but it helped me find out what people did think of my writing, before I tried to publish any.

I was told that by my girlfriend's grandma, who was friends with Ray before he died and went to his funeral. If anyone else had said it I wouldn't have believed them.

Mr. Jelly, learn to use this site, and you will have hundreds of resources (both internet and print) with open calls for short fiction and poetry.

I use it, and get published, all the time.

That looks like a useful tool, thank you.
