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?

If you want to stay within the fediverse, maybe have a look at federated blogging/publishing platforms like WriteFreely or Plume. (Both are also selfhostable).

Edit:

WriteFreely: https://writefreely.org/
Plume: https://joinplu.me/
