There are some more hard nuts out there but Glimmer Train and Writer's Digest are extremely hard. My writing doesn't actually fit in Guidepost or Chicken Soup for the Soul, but I do have a Writer's Market Handbook and also I am a subscriber of Duotrope. I know one of these days I will breakthrough. So, I'm keep on submitting. <br />Shalom,<br />PatriciaPat Garciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04204650731843984192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478463740718742925.post-29196406624180646432016-03-11T17:42:44.077+01:002016-03-11T17:42:44.077+01:00Thank you so much for coming by Lisa, and I'm ...Thank you so much for coming by Lisa, and I'm sorry for getting back so late but I was in the middle of rewriting the last seven chapters.

The middle, which you got through, is the hardest. Usually as I near the end, my writing picks up steam, because everything comes together. I hope it will be the same for you.<br />Looking forward to hearing next month's report. :)Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13139361928785566916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478463740718742925.post-69002987480790140362016-03-04T07:49:27.456+01:002016-03-04T07:49:27.456+01:00I'm so delighted you're submitting!

I almost got into Readers Digest but 'almost' only counts in 'horseshoes and hand grenades.' One thing I learned over the years is to stay away from 'literary magazines' as they are usually collegiate and snobby. Guideposts and Chicken Soup for the Soul take inspiring stories and pay as much as 400 dollars a short story. I'm sending things there next. Use the Writer's Digest book guide for tons of places to submit to. Good luck my friend.
