Each Friday, the Practicing Writing blog shares writing and publishing resources, news, and reflections to peruse over the weekend.

Flummoxed by the “artist statement” requirement of many residency and related applications? NYFA has some advice.
Ready to dig deep into a “literary travesty”? Alta has you covered.
The PEN/Faulkner Foundation has announced “that Yiyun Li has been selected as the winner of the 2022 PEN/Malamud Award for Excellence in the Short Story.”
Good news: Both The Believer and Conjunctions are back from their respective brinks!
Right on schedule: Yesterday brought a fresh set of Jewish Literary Links over on the My Machberet blog.

And one more note: I’m looking forward to taking part in this discussion about “how Jewish religious text fits (or doesn’t) into the contemporary creative literary landscape.” Happening next week; registration is open ($18 for the general public).

Have a wonderful weekend.
