I never see reference here to FictionFactor.com as a resource, which I think is highly unfortunate. They send out an enewsletter once every other month, and they always mention paying markets. This month they are offering up a PDF document of Science Fiction markets. Check it out:

They have special focus areas for fantasy writers, horror writers, and romance writers as well. It's worth poking around the site. The advice is good, free, and useful.

At one time their market guide was out of date, but it sounds as though possibly they've updated it. I generally depend on ralan.com and duotrope.com. But another source of information is always a good thing, so thanks for mentioning it. I haven't checked it out in a long time.

I downloaded the PDF guide. The one thing that jumped out at me is that the definition of a pro market is outmoded and does not meet current SFWA standards.
