Publishing and Writing Contest Web Sites

All links below are good as of August 18, 2015.  Most links are to print publications, but some sites also accept submissions for an online version of their publication as well. Click around if you like what you see. Find out what kind of writing they like. Do you like to write in that genre, too? Check for any submission deadlines and age or gender requirements to see if you qualify.
