lit match

Nope, not a dating service. 
 

Got a piece you're ready to publish? As partners with Chill Subs — the Everything Site™ for writers — we combine their datasets with our lit world knowledge to create custom lists of recommended homes for your outbound pieces. Take the guesswork out of submitting. There's thousands of mags out there. But we'll match the vibe of your writing, and your publishing needs, to ones you'll love discovering, reading, and appearing in.

Fancy members can spend LMC credits to request a list here

 

Others can purchase lists for cash at Chill Subs rates.

                                                                      

                                                Curious? See a sample here and here.

  • 1. Start here.

    2. Share info about you, your writing, and goals..

    Fancy members can use 1 LMC credit to request a standard list:

    10 literary magazine recommendations for either up to 6,000 words of prose, or 5 poems.

  • Within 3 weeks, you’ll receive your custom list with a cover letter and the info for 10 lit mags that might welcome your work, along with the reasoning for why.

  • I want to submit more than 6000 words? Or add more mags to my list? 

     You can use additional credits to:

    • submit up to 12,000 words, or

    • receive up to 20 recommendations.

    I need to change my submitted file or info?
    Just let us know! If we haven’t completed your list yet, we'll make the substitution.

The team took the time to read my stories closely and understand them before finding some wonderful recommendations. My first two lists each resulted in a publication in very fine magazines, for stories that I had previously struggled to place. Their knowledge of the short story market is truly phenomenal

As a family caregiver with a very full life, researching journals has been the steepest hill I climb--and to have this assistance has been life-changing for my writing.

Truly amazing! . . . You saved me countless hours of often dead-end research that I'd rather spend writing. Thank you!
