This will be an abbreviated version. Blame my weekend travels, the Memorial Day holiday, and my efforts to finish the June Practicing Writer. I hope that you’ll find it helpful nonetheless! And for all of us in the U.S., here’s to a meaningful Memorial Day.
Carol Tice, the mastermind behind the Make A Living Writing blog (included within Practicing Writing’s blogroll), will henceforth pay $50 for each guest post on her blog. Read all about her new policy (and find the pitching guidelines) here.
Dalkey Archive Press, “is considering applications for positions at its Champaign, IL (University of Illinois) or Dublin (Trinity College) offices. Rather than job descriptions, [a] list of requirements, areas of focus, preferences, and characteristics will be used to judge an applicant’s suitability. Specific areas of responsibility will depend upon applications received. All positions at the Press overlap to a degree. Applicants from outside the United States are welcome to apply, but only applicants with European Union citizenship will be considered for assignment to the Dublin office.”

Thanks for the mention!
Just want to stress people need to pitch me an idea, not send completed articles. They will not be accepted. I only pay on posts where I have approved the headline and outline and discussed the idea with the writer.
Thanks again !
Thanks so much for the comment and emphasis, Carol.
