Call for Submissions

Articles are needed for Writing for Children's Magazines. If you have the time and an idea, I encourage you to develop it and send it my way. I will also consider reprints, if you have the rights; just include where the piece was originally published. Submission guidelines are here. Writing for Children's Magazines is now paying $10 for original pieces and $5 for reprints. Because I've gotten so few submissions, the ezine is switching publication from bi-monthly to quarterly, starting in the new year. The publication dates will be February 1, May 1, August 1, and November 1. Thank you to those of you who have submitted articles.


Additions to the Adult Writers' List

Story Shares is not technically a magazine, but it is a place online where your stories can potentially be published. Stories Shares is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide interesting, age relevant, quality stories for struggling readers, middle school age and older. This is a non-paying market. Writer guidelines are here.

[Editor's personal note: I read a couple of the stories on Story Shares to get a feel for the site. I just want to say that Kelly Winters' Jacob and the Bee Man is excellent! It touched my heart and even brought tears to my eyes at the end.]
