I've compiled a table of short fiction markets (except anthologies) which pay 1 cent a word or more for science fiction, fantasy and/or horror stories. This list was last updated 6 April 1999. Check the CALLIHOO newsletters since that date for updates. The list is available in two formats:

(Note: on the tables, shaded rows are for markets which are currently closed, on hiatus, or not accepting submissions for some reason. The key for the abbreviations used in the newsletter is in the "addresses" portion of the file.)
