I haven't written for nearly a decade and want to start again. What are some journals, magazines, zines I should check out to see what's cool nowadays and to see what I'm up against?

Also just post and discuss your favourite journals etc. Or your experiences trying to get published in one.

I have a large document full of journals, magazines, websites etc. I've done quite a bit of research I just wanted to see what /lit/ had to say.

No one cares. A simply google search reveals one website containing hundreds of them. Imagine doing “research”
