Fantasy Magazine is #1

....on the [livejournal.com profile] ra_log

As a maintainer, I get to look at the tags by usage if I so choose. Do you want to know which pubs get the most traffic from us?

In order of submissions reported by RALOGers, the top 10 (since March 2008):
1) Fantasy Magazine* (56)
2) Strange Horizons* (47)
3) A.S.I.M. (41)
4) F&SF* (38)
5) Lone Star Stories (37)
6) JBU* (36)
7) Clarkesworld* (34)
7) Weird Tales (34)
9) IGMS* (26)
9) Beneath Ceaseless Skies (26)
11) Asimov's* (25)
11) Abyss & Apex (25)

So, these are the mags our RALOGers favor. How very interesting.

Some other interesting points from the list...

SFWA 'approved' markets not in the top ten:
13) Realms of Fantasy* (20)
22) WOTF* (10)
Analog* (7)
Chizine* (7)
Pedestal* (7) (SBT just added one)
Brutarian* (5)
Cosmos* (4)
Cemeterey Dance* (3)

Some interesting anthologies (various iterations, though)
Clockwork Phoenix (15)
Sword & Sorceress (13)
Polyphony (8)
Wolfsongs (2)
Warrior Wisewoman (1)
(I'd heard that CP got a gazillion subs last time...this seems to bear that out)

*SFWA Pro Approved Market. Yes, I'm putting one on Fantasy now, since they have their info turned in to SFWA. This doesn't, sadly, retroactively affect the stories I've sold there.

We equal Asimov's???

Interesting.

I thought so to. Also, you were above ROF...it's probably skewed by the more on-line oriented crowd that uses this forum, but you were still impressively high ;o)
