I write short stories and poetry. I’ve posted here on Lemmy a bit. I’d like to start publishing/ posting.

I’m afraid medium/ substack needs a lot of “publicity” and requires me to have social media accounts to promote it.

What other options are there? Any publications I can submit to? And are substack and medium any good?

    A surprising number of writers just hone their craft on Ao3 (archive of our own) and then self publish on Amazon. A friend of mine did that and while she doesn’t make a ton she does get a continous trickle of sales. Amazon is a big back of dicks but it is the marketplace unfortunately.
