Publication: Lamplight Magazine
Themes: Horror, Dark Speculative Fiction and Noir
Length: Flash is less than a 1000. Short Stories need to be 2000 or more.
Simultaneous submission are fine. No multiple submissions.
Pay: Flat rate of $150 a short, $50 for flash fiction
Notes: Again, this is another new publication. The pay seems too amazing to pass up. Toss something their way and see what happens.
Publication: Wicked Industries
Theme: Action and Adventure, Sci-Fi, and Horror
Word Count: up to 5000
Pay scale: $5 per short story
Notes: No mention of multiple submission or reprints. It’s always good nature to mention if it’s been reprinted. They also have incredible response time. They claim they respond within 2-3 days. I’ll definitely be throwing a short or two their way, especially since I can quickly submit the story elsewhere if it gets rejected. It’s also new, their first anthology will be out July 9th.

Check out this huge list of anthologies, looking for writers to fill them.
They have lots of anthologies looking for submissions. It’s non-paying but they have a lot of interesting themes in each anthology. I recently submitted a reprint to them to their “The End” anthology, which they gladly accept along with simultaneous submissions. It’s a little weird navigating the forums, but it’s worth it.
