The word magazine is
from French magasin, storehouse,
from Old French magazin (possibly via Old Italian magazzino),
from Arabic mahāzin, pl. of mahzan,
from hazana, to store,
from Aramaic ḥassen, to possess, hoard,
derived stem of ḥəsan, to be strong.
What is Storehouse?
Storehouse is an advanced and interactive catalog of literary markets. Relying on complex algorithms and the large data of a community of writers, Storehouse does more than list links: Storehouse actively sorts magazines and submissions for you.
Yes, Storehouse will provide detailed information about thousands of literary markets and writing contests with advanced search options, and yes, there are good websites providing similar services to writers and readers (see Duotrope and New Pages), but Storehouse will do more, better.
