The Writers’ Room: Send It: How to Publish in Lit Journals
Stop letting your writing collect digital dust! Whether you’re a first-time submitter drowning in choice paralysis or a seasoned writer looking to level up your submission game, this workshop demystifies the entire lit mag submission process.
Based on 5 years of submission experience and insights from the literary community, this crash course takes you from “what’s a lit mag?” to “thank you for accepting my piece!” We’ll cut through the red tape and give you exactly what you need to start getting your work out into the world.
Learn to:
- navigate the overwhelming world of literary magazines;
- decode submission guidelines;
- craft cover letters;
- write your author bio;
- build a submission tracking system;
- understand submission etiquette;
- process rejections and acceptance.
