I've come across a couple places that want a photo with the initial submission, but yeah it's pretty rare. It seems more common with smaller / younger journals, probably because the staff is only one or two people and it's one less thing to potentially forget about / run into deadline issues with if contributors are slow to respond or something. I've seen it once in a print journal too, which I assume is so that they could set up the final proof as quickly as possible. Kinda weird, but I guess it's not a bad idea to have a bio headshot laying around just in case.

not the place i was talking about but in that vein polychrome (phoneposting so no link) is a nice lil setup that offers 20bux a pop and wants to showcase diversity, a neat lil pigeonhole you can slide into easily enough but they want you to go thru a rigorous trigger warning process cataloguing plot points and themes might be worth keeping an eye on?

So every day fiction is kinda cool in that you get a ton of feedback if you get accepted. I got crits from 4 editors, plus it appears that people actually use the comment/rating features. https://everydayfiction.com/the-nursery-by-tara-m-lee/ Extremely token payment, but still a neat little pub

Just had two stories come out in Neon, which is my first time being in overseas print. Both of them are old, slightly reworked TD entries - there's a free story here http://neonmagazine.co.uk/signals-of-fear-and-uncertainty/ and another one that requires actually downloading the issue.

And that's awesome, it's rare to see a journal with an active community of readers leaving comments like that.

If y'all can pressgang someone into setting it up, I will definitely add it to the OP.

Sold a story to Pantheon Magazine. I think I've been shopping it around since 2012 or so.

People who've read the work I'm shopping around right now (futuristic military sci-fi, basically) have mentioned that it seems very suited for a YA audience, and I'm actually seeing where they're coming from. I figure it can't hurt my chances, so does anyone have suggestions for good magazines looking for YA publications? I've found a few, but I figured I'd get some other perspectives before I start sending out submissions.

How long is it? Maybe try Hunger Mountain or Yarn -- both are currently closed for submissions, but they have windows coming up in May and September respectively.
|
# ? Mar 21, 2017 00:47 |

Oh yeah that's helpful information. 2,700 words. Yarn was one I was looking at, cool. I'll take a look at Hunger Mountain too.

Cicada would be another one to check out. The only other one I can think of that fit the bill would be Second Hand Stories, which isn't specifically YA, but accepts it. Might be worth looking at if your story is toeing the line, anyway.It's also in podcast format, if that matters to you. edit: Should probably link them, huh? Cicada: http://www.cicadamag.com/about Second Hand Stories: http://www.secondhandpodcast.com/ Also congrats ravenkult!

I can say at least though, that Grendelsong said they were closing up shop (they're listed under no deadline submissions) Shame, having just stumbled on them from this.
