I have a general feeling that <cite>SH<\/cite> is very high-profile in the communities we interact with; for example, I think everyone on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rumormill.org\/\">Rumor Mill<\/a> knows who we are (though I'm not even entirely sure of that).  But it's hard for me to get a sense of how known we are outside of those circles.<\/p>\n<p>So I was intrigued just now to notice one item that I think is somewhat relevant: the <a href=\"http:\/\/critters.critique.org\/blackholes\/\">Submitting to the Black Hole<\/a> submissions-tracking page lists, for each sf market, minimum reported response time, maximum reported response time, average response time, and number of data points.  <cite>SH<\/cite> certainly doesn't have the lowest average response time, though it's quite respectable on that front.  But what I just noticed is that there are only two markets on that page that have a higher number of data points than we do: <cite>Asimov's<\/cite> and <cite>F&amp;SF.<\/cite><\/p>\n<p>In other words, if you rank all markets (print, online, magazine, anthology, etc) by number of submissions that have been reported on that page, we rank third.<\/p>\n<p>That doesn't say anything about overall submission volume, of course; we don't get nearly as many submissions as the big print prozines.  Nor does it say anything about our visibility in the world at large; what little evidence I've seen suggests that there's a big overlap between Rumor Mill denizens and people who report response times on the Black Hole page, so really, this may just be a restatement of my original impression that we're well-known on the Rumor Mill.  But I still think it's pretty cool.<\/p>\n<p>What, me obsessive?<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently I&#8217;ve had several conversations with various people in which I&#8217;ve tried to find a way to express my sense&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
