impressive. Are these all paying markets, or a mix, or none?

It's a mix. Most markets do not pay in anything besides contributor's copies. Most of those that do require paper submissions, which I haven't been able to send recently (due to moving). I do have one submission at a very well-known market that would pay very well if accepted.

How does moving prevent you from sending paper submissions? What would you need in order to be able to do that?

Well, it's not impossible, it's just inordinately inconvenient. I'd have to get copies made, which would necessitate going to Kinko's or the library. Also, I would prefer to have an address that I checked daily instead of what I have now, which is an address by proxy (forwarded to my sister's).

I was excited to notice (after the fact) that Existere is a paying market; they call their payment "a small honorarium", so I'm not expecting anything more than $10, if that.

I was sad to find out (after the fact) that flashquake is a paying market; I would have sent a different batch of poems.
