Anyone know of a market for "long short stories?" I've written a piece -- fiction -- that exceeds what most small presses seem willing to accept as short fiction. It's 22,000 words. Max acceptable I've found so far is 20K words, and that's upper upper limit. My story falls somewhere between a long short story and a novella. Where to submit?

When I put your word count into http://www.duotrope.com/ I got 50 matches for publications that take your length (it's novella, not "long short stories"). What is the genre?
You story IS a novella. Short stories stop at 7,500 words, novelettes stop at 17,500 words, and novellas begin at 17,500 words.
