A Few New Markets

Over at Duotrope I found a few markets that might be of interest.

First up is "Eric's Hysterics". http://www.erics-hysterics.com/ This is a new market looking for subs for its first issue. What they're looking for is humor pieces in all the genres. 100 to 3000 words for shorts and the pay is $5. They're also looking for poetry and artwork. Humor markets are hard to find so hopefully this one will take off and stay in business for a while.

This next one is a flash market called "Life With Objects" http://www.lifewithobjects.com The top word count is 500. There's a list of 14 objects to choose from for your story. This is a non-paying market. They're taking submissions but there will be no response until May so you might want to wait until close to May to submit if you're the impatient sort. :)

I thought Graveside Tales was a zine, but it appears to be a small press who is looking for novellas of 20,000 to 35,000 words along with short novels and standard length novels. Their submission period closes May 30 for dark supernatural stories, especially those set in the Lycanthrope universe. According to the site they've been in business since 2007. I didn't find any mention of payment so you might want to query first before submitting. http://gravesidetales.com/submissions/ They are also looking for authors with an available back list.
