There are TONS of journals, print and online that accept short stories of varying lengths and sensibilities. The challenge is finding the right match. You SHOULD write what you like and what interests you--that's where your energy is. You'll also probably end up submitting to the journals you like to read. There are many possibilities for submissions because there's many different readers--not everyone wants to read 'dark'. Humor is hard to write and obviously you've written a strong character in Vondalee. Being a finalist of 150 entries is an accomplishment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17158416639081791233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-8318446634944423402017-04-27T08:43:49.762-04:002017-04-27T08:43:49.762-04:00Short stories and novels are way different.

The title of Vondalee's story is great, so I'm sure it must live up to it.
