Fiction Magazines

Here is our listings of over 600 magazines taking fiction submissions. We have been listing fiction magazines for over 10 years. Some of these listings are older, and we are doing our very best to bring you up to date listings. Our site has over 10,000 pages! 

Some of these fiction submissions are brand new, or just a few months old. We hope you find what you find a publisher for your fiction. We are always working to bring you more listings. Unlike some sites that charge authors to enter, or editors for reviews, our listings are free. We also have both obscure and well-known fiction markets.

We are adding new fiction markets everyday. If you find a listing that is out of date, please feel free to leave a comment. Sometimes we publish your comments. Sometimes we simply update the listing. Either way we are listing and doing our best to respond. If you have a specific question about our listings, the best way to contact us is by leave a comment on our Talk to the Editor page.
