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?

I dont know much about writing stories/poetry, but for publicity in fediverse (I assume you meant in fediverse too) here would be my response:

Lemmy is good but the main part of fediverse is the mastodon clients (twitter equivalent). Most of the users use a mastodon instance.

So posting to mastodon and lemmy seems like a good option. Although mastodon will limit post text length. Better to repost or boost it from lemmy to mastodon.
