#Oleada is a small submission portal. https://oleada.io/ Personally, I was unable to spend time on the site because it has a black background and white letters. I do have one or two places I might send to that use Oleada as a portal. It is simply not worth a migraine to use the site. However, others may like it.

#Duosoma and #Duotrope are a submission tracker and portal. Authors can upload submissions to open markets free. If the market has a box to be checked, they can track those submissions to be reported in Duosoma's numbers. https://duotrope.com/duosuma/submit/opportunities/ The currently open submission opportunities page was recently updated. It now gives a title, and a line of information about the market. The calendar view can be useful.

They actually have multiple parts of the website I did not know were there. The Open Reading Periods page is split into two sections. One with open dates, and another for year round open markets. They do have a submission tracker, though I have never used it. I do find that their market list is more likely to include fiction, poetry, and drabble markets. Their market pages include important information such as links to guidelines, reading period, fees, and response tim

Submittable is a submission portal mostly used by the drabble and fiction markets I follow. though there are a few other genres as well.

#Aswiebe is a #ShortStory market list that is posted occasionally. It is a downloadable Excel or Libre Office spreadsheet with multiple fields. The author even includes yearly dead markets lists. There is a posted date for the last updated spreadsheet. https://aswiebe.com/marketlist/ In fact, these spreadsheets are a great place to start with creating your own personal spreadsheets. You may have different needs, genres, or more. Maybe someday, I will share my Scrivene

or authors - there is no login, no fee, just a quick search. They have a small list of which markets use their submission portal that are currently open. Mostly, you will find their direct links in Fantasy, Horror, Science Fiction, and Speculative markets on their submissions page. A quick check shows if they are currently accepting submissions, and which type. One important aspect of #Moksha. It claims a 1,024 character limit for cover letters.

Chill Subs is fascinating. They allow you to have a nice author profile, list multiple publications, and search for markets. They have recently added a search by newly added markets option. Which is something I had thought about requesting.

I am beginning a blog series of #ShortStory #Submission programs I use. I am sure there are some I don't know about. Here is my partial list: Aswiebe, Chill Subs, Duotrope/Duosoma, Moksha, Oleada, Poets & Writers, SFWA, Submittable, and The Submission Grinder.
