Jeff VanderMeer has released a very concise and helpful article entitled "Seven Points to Consider When Submitting Short Fiction." If you have ever written, are writing, or one day hope to write a short story for possible publication, you owe it to yourself to read Jeff's article, which can be found here. (I feel point number seven is particularly wise and important.)
A shout out to Laird Barron for bringing this article to my attention.
