Consider this

All--as you work on your proposals, keep in mind two possible journals for your final projects; both of these publish brief articles.

The first is The Writing Lab Newsletter (http://writinglabnewsletter.org/submission.html). They accept articles that are 2500-3000 words in length. They publish an issue every month, so the rate of acceptance is good.

The second is Praxis (http://projects.uwc.utexas.edu/praxis/?q=node/14). It's an online journal, but from what they say (which is a little odd) they only take typical Word-formatted essays. They want articles that are 1000-2000 words in length.
