What Submission Guidelines Don’t Tell You: An Insider’s Guide to Submitting to Literary Journals
Whether you’re just thinking about sending your work out to literary journals, or you’ve already received a handful of rejections, this class will explain how the dizzying process really works. We’ll cover targeting markets, formatting work, handling rejections, and what happens when you get accepted. After this lively class, you’ll be ready to charge the world of publishing. (Note: Not for book-length publishing)
“I attended a Liz Prato’s mini-workshop on publishing, & it was great. I walked away with reassuring statistics on how many rejections to expect as opposed to acceptances, models for cover letters, an online source for literary journals, & lots of good, practical advice.” ~ Cindy Stewart-Rinier
