The pickings are pretty slim in the new markets department but I've run across a few that might be of interest.
First up is a non-paying Romance market. Moon Washed Kisses is looking for PG love stories up to 1500 words. Their first issue is up now and they're taking submissions for the second due out in January 2011. You can find all the details at http://moonwashedkisses.wordpress.com/
If you're looking to stretch your flash writing muscle, you might give Up the Staircase's new challenge a try. They're looking for flash pieces of 250 words based on one of the two pictures they have on the site. "The Temptation of St. Anthony" by Salvadore Dali and "Room at Arles" by van Gogh. The best pieces will be published in Issue #11. The deadline for submission is October 1. You can find all the details at http://www.upthestaircase.org/challenge.htm
Whortleberry Press http://whortleberrypress.com/ has two anthologies open for submissions. Both are looking for shorts to 4000 words with a PG rating. The pay is $10. One is a Valentine anthology with a December 1 deadline, the other is Strange Mysteries #3 with a February 1 deadline. You can find all the details at http://whortleberrypress.com/writersguidelines.html
And just for fun - the ladies of sci-fi have posted some cover art for "Boobieships & Titrockets". Seems they don't like being told they can't write sci-fi. http://januaryhat.livejournal.com/17108.html
