"The Straight-Up Skinny on How to Submit to Literary Journals" with M. M. Adjarian

Presented by Writers' League of Texas (WLT) at Online

Getting work into journals is a great way to begin building your literary credentials. But writers new to the submissions game are often mystified – even needlessly daunted – by the process. Where do you go to find out which journals are accepting work in your genre? How do you present your work to editors? And what happens on the way to an acceptance?

In this class, you’ll learn about submissions best practices through a guided tour of the major online platforms to use when submitting and in-depth discussions of the submissions process that include details on:

locating markets
writing cover letters/bios
formatting documents
submission etiquette

The class will also offer tips on:

how to increase your chances of acceptance
what to expect after you’ve submitted
how to read editor responses

The class is intended for any writer who has material to submit…or just wants the straight-up, no-bull skinny on the journal submission process.

TAKE THIS CLASS IF

You want to know best practices for literary journal submissions in all genres
You want to know where to find the best markets for your work
