How about this if you write a story and don't find a zine right away post it to the net til you find a zine willing to publish it then ask the site owner to remove it and store it
Many -- probably most -- zine publishers won't take stories which have already been available online, since that means a fair portion of the audience will already have read the stories and aren't likely to buy a zine with "recycled" material. It's quite common for stories to appear online *after* they've been published in a zine and enough time has elapsed for the publisher's print run to sell (the time is arranged between the publisher and authors, usually a year or so), but a story which has already appeared online has a poor prospect of finding a zine publisher.
