Writing-related resources, news, and reflections to enjoy over the weekend.
Lots of great recommendations in this extensive post from The Write Life/Marisol Dahl on “The 100 Best Websites for Writers” (even if we’d humbly suggest that next time, they consider adding one? ;-)).
I’m beginning to feel a tad overwhelmed by all the podcasts that are out there; if you want to see one list of podcasts that are recommended “for writers, word nerds, and book lovers,” see Crystal King’s post for Grub Daily.
Over at The Millions, Nick Ripatrazone “asked editors of seven great literary magazines to select their favorite issues. Here are their choices.”
I’ll confess that a line about campaigning in poetry and governing in prose has been much on my mind this week. Here’s one take on it, by Amy Davidson on NewYorker.com.
Don’t forget that the next issue of The Practicing Writer will be published very soon! In addition to the usual rich array of no-fee, paying opportunities and submission calls, you’ll find there a Q&A with author, professor, and MFA director Jeanetta Calhoun Mish. If you’re not yet a subscriber, you’re always welcome to join us! (There’s no charge, and I do not share/sell/otherwise offer up the subscriber list.)
Have a great weekend, everyone!
