This page contains markets that pay in exposure only. Watch out for your rights! Posting your story on any public web site, even your own, is a first publication; your work is then a reprint, which drastically reduces its marketability and pay rate. Writers considering markets on this page should be aware of this and that editorial quality can vary wildly. This is especially true of webzines. While some publishers & editors start here to learn their trade (as serious novice writers do), many are begun by novice writers basically as a means of getting their own works published and of adding the title 'editor' after their name. Before submitting always review the publication, check not only the look but the level of spelling and grammar, the quality of the stories, the editorial presence. The old adage, "You are judged by the company you keep," is definitely the rule here. US ($), UK (£), or EU (€) currency are used unless otherwise noted. Addresses are US unless noted otherwise.
These listings are provided in good faith with the belief the info is correct, but Ralan.com accepts no responsibility for any errors or omissions in them. The fact that an entry is listed here is no guarantee that said entity will ever publish anything. Contact with any editor or publisher is at the contributor's own risk. Ralan.com encourages all potential contributors to do a web search of the editor's and/or publisher's name before submitting to them. Each visitor assumes all risk associated with the use or misuse of the information here.
Exposure Only and Token markets that use a professional submission service only will not be listed.
PLEASE NOTE THAT A FEW MARKETS THAT HAVE APPEARED ON THIS PAGE HAVE BEEN USED BY UNSCRUPULOUS PERSONS TO LURE INEXPERIENCED WRITERS INTO SITUATIONS THAT CAN LEAD TO LOSS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (plagiarism) AND/OR CURRENCY (money). RALAN.COM DOES ITS BEST, BUT IS NOT A POLICEMAN, NOR IS THERE ENOUGH TIME TO INVESTIGATE OR DETERMINE ALL MARKETS THAT MIGHT BE OUT TO DO THIS. IT IS UP TO YOU TO WATCH YOUR OWN BACK. BE CAREFUL OUT THERE.
