Today's #ShortStory search engine is #TheSubmissionGrinder.
It has been around for a while, since Duotrope went paid.
There are a lot of great aspects to it.
They send out market updates - open, closed, temp closed, and new listed markets.
You can add notes, and see them when you search for markets.
There are multiple ways to search.
You can track you stories as well as income received from them. Even mark the stories as retired. In the Tracker, you can see marked in yellow or red, which markets have held a story beyond normal response times.
There is no easy way to sort markets in personalized folders (One Chill Subs advantage), or see which markets were newly followed.
I really like the notes option, and copy parts of the Scrivener market notes to them so I can see them at a glance when searching for a market for a story. There is a tiny notepad that can be hovered over to see notes at a glance.
Example:
Genre Market
PayMent:
RePrints:
Multiple:
Simultaneous:
Wait Period:
AI Concerns:
Other notes as needed.
Market response times are listed on their pages.
