Tiered listings are followed by detailed market info. The tiering assessments are highly idiosyncratic, based on a combination of pay scale, reputation, and circulation; it's rather difficult to tell which magazines are actually most prestigious. If you disagree with a particular publication's tier listing, please don't get upset -- just write and let me know why, and there's a good chance that I'll adjust it.
Thanks to Ben Rosenbaum, Toiya K. Finley, Alan DeNiro, and Paul Ketzle for extensive market listing help.

"I'm looking for stories that are emotionally and intellectually
substantive and also interesting on the level of language. Things that are
shocking, dark, lewd, comic, or even insane are fine so long as the
fiction is controlled and puposeful in a masterly way. Subtlety, delicacy
and lyricism are attractive too." Work should be polished--clearly
revised, grammatical, proofread. Length should be no less than 1,200 and
no more than 5,000 words." Send all poetry submissions to Mary Jo Bang
and Timothy Donnelly, poetry editors. Buys first serial rights, no

The Mississippi Review
From the editor:
"Mississippi Review is available in two editions, one in print and one
online. The two editons have the same editor but largely different
content. We pay in copies most time, but also sponsor an annual contest
with prizes of $1000 for fiction and poetry, we are consulted for all the
major prize anthologies (in fact we're right there in your O'Henry list),
we've been in business 33 years, and we publish both well known and
emerging writers.
Mississippi Review, one of the most highly regarded literary magazines in
the nation, and a magazine that was recently referenced in Writer's
Digest as the fifth most important and influential on-line publication,
and which, in 1995, was named by GNN as the first winner in its national
competition for web sites in the category Professional Literary
Magazine.
Mississippi Review is a widely recognized literary magazine that has and continues to publish National Book Award winners, Pulitzer Prize winners, National Book Critics Circle winners. It's a magazine which Ann Beattie characterized as 'Among the best small magazines being published,' and of which perhaps the most famous American author of the second half of the century, Raymond Carver, who was an occasional contributor, said, 'MR is one of the most remarkable and indispensable literary journals of our time.' Long-time Southern writer David Madden commented that 'Mississippi Review has become a vital and significant publication, as good as any, and right here in the South, right there in Mississippi.' And the Pulitzer Prize winning poet, Charles Simic, himself a contributor to MR, said, 'Mississippi Review is probably one of the best magazines in the country.' Finally, the late John Hawkes, former head of the writing program at Brown University and a remarkable writer and prize winner in his own right, said, 'Yours is among the truly sustaining literary publications in the country today.'"

"Yaoi Press publishes graphic novels. These are thick, soft-cover,
digest-sized comic books. Our books are drawn in the Japanese "manga"
style. Our stories all fall into a niche Japanese genre called 'yaoi'
that is popular with women in the United States. Yaoi is romantic stories
about guys in love with other guys for women readers. We need graphic
novel script writers. We're hoping some polished fiction writers will
consider making the leap into something different. Please research the
genre of yaoi online before you submit. It's not the same as gay fiction.
Payment is $10-$15 per graphic novel page depending on your professional
published credits. A full-length graphic novel is 100-120 pages. We also
publish shorter bonus stories of 20-60 pages. Sample scripts available
upon request. Please read our submissions guidelines carefully:
