  • Also via Twitter: “queer jewish writers! i am looking for hanukkah content for @autostraddle. this can be servicey or a personal essay or a secret third thing! plz pitch me: vanessa [at] autostraddle [dot] com. READ THE THREAD FOR DETAILS.” (Pay rates: $100-$150; hat tip to Hannah Bae.)
  • The Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) has issued a call for applications to join the Sydney Taylor Book Award Committee (these are volunteer positions). Deadline: December 12.
