Finds for Writers

Each week (typically Fridays), the Practicing Writing blog offers writing and publishing resources, news, and reflections to peruse over the weekend.

Apologies, everyone, but the week really has run away from me. Today’s post is going to point you to just one new find: The August issue of The Practicing Writer 2.0, which went out to subscribers yesterday. It’s packed with 60+ fee-free and paying/funded opportunities that are now or will soon be open for submissions and applications. Also within: a featured resource (spoiler: this recently refreshed list), subscriber success stories, and much more.

Please check it out, and please share with your own writing networks.

Also: The online version linked above includes one date correction—for the Iowa Short Fiction Awards—made when a correspondent called my error to my attention after the original was sent to subscribers. Please do take a look!

Have a wonderful weekend.

    Your newsletter alone is a treasure trove!
    Thanks to a few acceptances over the past 2 months, I feel more encouraged to submit. I’ll be going through all the submission calls this weekend!
