: Re: Where to find a place to publish a specific kind of work? I've written some stories about my adventures in the wars. I don't think they're Hemingway caliber, but I don't think they're bad.

You could always consider self-publishing your work. Whether your stories are a collection of individual tales pertaining to different incidents or a continuous timeline of events, I'm sure you would be able to find an audience. If you aren't familiar with what is required to self-publish, I would recommend visiting a forum where writers discuss the steps they have taken. One that I frequent quite often is the Writer's Café, which is part of the Kindle Boards community. You can find several authors there who can help answer questions and provide guidance on what you need to get you going.

Probably the easiest place to submit your work would be Kindle Direct Publishing, where you can make your work available in e-book format. Amazon basically provides the sales platform for you, so all you have to do is promote the book. You can also make your book available in print by using CreateSpace, which is Amazon's print distribution model for self-publishers.

If you're interested in going through a traditional publishing house, then I would suggest considering a monthly subscription to the Writer's Market, which will provide you with a list of publishers and agents along with their submission guidelines. This would be a quick and simple means of identifying potential publishers that you could consider submitting your work to, but it would involve more time and effort on your part.
