So, I'm writing a story and realized I have no idea who buys this type of fiction. Now, I will eventually open it up to any brave soul that hopes to read it. Hopefully they would be able to tell me who would be interested in it, but I decided to ask anyway.

The easiest way I can describe it is regular old lit fic. Any good online lists like ralan.com for literary fiction?

p.s. I realize that this may not be the most appropriate place for this post - but I have this paranoid feeling that some people don't even look at the other section of the forum.

You should try writersdigest.com . If you look around, you should be able to find their Top 100 markets. It's not exhaustive, but it's a good place to start.

Here's the link to their Top 100: writersdigest.com/topics/wdtop100_listing.asp

And here's the link to their Top 30 fiction markets: writersdigest.com/hotmarkets_30_listings.asp

Good luck!
