The following post is a rearrangement of an original post by Entropy Magazine. Entropy Magazine publish a bi-monthly list of presses, journals, and residencies that are open to submissions and have up-coming deadlines. The version below is arranged by date and deadline (the original is published in alphabetical order). I create this version for personal use, but I am releasing it here in case this version is useful to others. Please feel free to make a copy of it. Also, please support Entropy Magazine. This list would not exist without their charity and efforts in support of the writing community.
