Another Pair of Markets

Found two more paying print magazines from Astra Publications, who is also the publisher for the two I mentioned yesterday. Both of these will be publishing once a year also.

First is Pulp Fic Press http://pulpficpress.astrapublications.com/index.html These folks are looking for shorts up to 4000 words and they're covering all the genres from the old pulps. Sci-fi, fantasy, crime, adventure, romance and horror or any combination. The pay is 6cents a word with a $240 max. There's also a Free Pulp Section that you can submit to. There's no pay, only exposure if your story is accepted for online publication.

The second is the nth Dimension http://nthdimension.astrapublications.com/guidelines.htm They're looking for sci-fi stories that think outside the box. 500 to 7000 words and the pay is 5.5cents a word.

I checked out the Pulp Fic link. Instead of 6 cents a word, their Submissions page says, "Unfortunately, we cannot afford to pay you for your work."
What up with that?

I have no idea Justin. I just stopped by Astra Publications and discovered that instead of the ten zines listed two days ago there are now only 8. Could be they've over-extended themselves before they got started.
