I’ve decided to make a list of places to publish research on games, although I am sure others have done so before me and more effectively than me. For example, see DiGRA Student’s chart of journals here. Slightly different to the DiGRA Student’s list in organisation and scope, this list aims to also include conferences, blogs, and book publishers. I have lumped outlets together based on theme/type to be a helpful resource for those looking to find a home for a particular paper- or just me. Either way, this seems more effective than a load of bookmarks.
