YA Markets?

[Sury]

I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I couldn't find a Young Adult (YA) forum, so am posting here.

I am looking for markets to submit some of my YA short stories. Any help is appreciated :).

Hello, Sury.

Welcome to Mainstream/Contemporary. I moved your post into a thread of its own so it'll get the attention it deserves.

I have a few YA markets in my bookmarks, but not a whole lot. Some people classify YA in with children's, so there might be some help to you on that board. I'll find what I have and get it posted for you either this evening or tomorrow.

I've been looking for YA short story markets too. I don't think Seventeen does fiction anymore, do they?

With transcription deadlines and storms today, I didn't have a chance to look for the links I promised, but they are on their way.

OK, I think I might have found something that could work for you guys. :)

Guideposts Sweet 16 (http://www.guidepostssweet16mag.com/guidelines.html) (Though to be fair, I don't know if they take fiction.)

Unfortunately, that's all I have bookmarked since I don't usually do children's/YA.

(I'm also going to copy this thread over to Children's Writing because I think you'll get more responses there than what I can give.)

The Writer's Digest publishers do a Children's Writers' market book (It's called that I think.) they publish every August.

There are a couple of very good writers' websites for children too. Have you googled to find them? Write4Kids I believe is one.

If you want British and Commonwealth children's markets then A & C Black of London now do an annual Children's Writer's Yearbook.
