Thank you for including a mention of my guest blog at reformjudaism.org among your literary links for Shabbat. Interestingly, I first submitted a guest blog to ReformJudaism because of a mention in your Monday Markets for writers this past spring. You wrote that they were looking for favorite images of Israel and said that it was a non-paying gig. I wrote and submitted an article on traveling to Israel with children. It was published and I have been submitting guest blogs since then. Now, I just have to find some places that pay for submissions! Thank you for starting my literary career.
Ellen, thanks so much for sharing that background! Best wishes, Erika
