Welcome to The Submission Grinder!
The Submission Grinder is a submission tracker and market database for writers of fiction and poetry (non-fiction writers, we would love to hear what you need!). Use our extensive and powerful search engine to find a home for your work. We hope the site is useful as it is, but we are also still actively developing new features.
We believe the value of our product lies in its availability and as such The Grinder is and always will be free to all users for all features.
If you can't find a listing for a publisher you'd like to submit to, suggest a new market listing.
If you have a feature suggestion or see a problem, please use the Contact Us page.
We love your feedback!
