I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm searching for publishers of novellas. Thanks. :)

I'd advise you to look in the "Ask an Agent" section. Better yet, consult the Writer's Marketplace for details on who has what word count range.

Any genre other than romance (know those) and horror (I tend to fall short here) would be great. :)

Have you checked out the Submission Grinder? You can search markets by story length and genre, among other specifics. It's also free, so have at it.

True, your genre is important. Some novel publishers will be willing to consider novellas of one genre, but not others.

Define "novella". Many writers who think they have a novella really have a novel.

I have various novellas of different genres. Many of them probably aren't at a point where they can see the light of day, but I hope to eventually rewrite/refine. I'm just looking now to get some ideas.

And they're definitely novellas, only around 30,000 words or so. I know the proper length of novels.
