How to Submit Your Short Stories
Some writing contests, anthologies, or publications may have specific submission guidelines or themes that writers find interesting or challenging. Selling a short story to meet these requirements can be a way to participate in such opportunities.



One thing you will want to particularly note is that most websites have rules about whether they will accept stories published in other publications before or not. Some publications want the first rights to your story, and some will accept stories you have published before.

Below are some publications that pay you for writing and submitting short stories and poetry:

1. The Threepenny Review

The Threepenny Review is a literary magazine that generally publishes essays, fiction, non-fiction, poetry, memoirs and more.



They have various word count preferences for each of the type of stories they choose to publish, but they do pay for pieces they publish.



On the higher end, they can pay $400 pier piece, and for shorter ones (such as poems) $200.



2. Poets & Writers

Poets & Writers have a few various ways to help writers make money.



One option is to pitch directly to the magazine, which you can do through their submission guidelines page.



After that, they also have a subscription you can join to keep on top of various short shorty contests and other opportunities for other paid writing gigs.



3. One Story

If you are looking to publish a short story, you have probably come across One Story as an option.



They only have a short window of time where they accept submissions, but they do pay $500 for 25 contributors copies.



Check out their submission page to stay on top of when the next opening is happening.
