Duotrope Digest is a database of over 1,950 current markets for short fiction, poetry, and novels/collections. You can scour the net universe for the most current online and print writing markets using Duotrope’s high-powered search engine. Duotrope also updates their database several times a day, letting you know which markets have closed, are still current, or are newly opened. Some of the information provided by Duotrope the genres accepted by each market; payscale; type of media; and response times as reported by registered Duotrope users.
You can mark markets as favorites so you don’t have to slog through the whole database just to find the one market perfect for your short story.
By registering, you’ll get periodic updates, detailing your market of choice, all for FREE. However, a donation (no matter how small) is always greatly appreciated.

“The Zoetrope Virtual Studio is a powerful collaborative tool for filmmakers, writers and other artists. Each of our workshops is a community where artists view, review and discuss one another’s work.” Membership is FREE, and you can choose from screenwriting to flash fiction workshops to participate in. As with any great workshop, you must first review other member submissions in order for your own to be reviewed, a small “price” to pay for the privilege of receiving constructive criticism.
