It seems to me, fresh from a Duptrope search, there are precious few markets for straight short crime fiction. Not mystery, not private detective, crime fiction; the kind of awesome stuff Hard Case Crime is currently (re)publishing.

Other than Hardboiled (which I placed a story with on my first try and not since) and Out of the Gutter (which may be a little too hardboiled for me, we'll see), are there any other markets for short, hard crime fiction?

EQMM and AHMM sometimes use crime fiction. I don't think anything I've sold them could be considered a mystery, and I had not a single private eye or cop in sight.

Isn't it a dandy? I was so pleased to see that Mouth Full O' Bullets has moved into print. BJ has done a great job there!
