Finds for Writers

Each week (typically Fridays), the Practicing Writing blog offers writing and publishing resources, news, and reflections to peruse over the weekend.
- On this September 11, there’s a lot that all of us might read. Among the more recent pieces is this one, spotlighting one firefighter and his family, from The Atlantic (gift link).
- From Zina Gomez-Liss: “a positive reflection on negative comments about my poem in Nimrod.”
- Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year) begins this evening, which means that the Jewish literary links that posted yesterday on My Machberet will be the final set for the year 5786. (Not available in time for inclusion there: Pamela Paul’s Wall Street Journal article, “Antisemitism Charges Plague the Literary World: New Publishers Are Pushing Back.”)
- From Michelle Garrett: advice to “help you make the most of each pitch and land more media coverage.”
- And over on Yours, SJP Lit: a back-to-school teaching-of-writing post from Victoria Redel (and a book-bundle giveaway.)
Wishing everyone a good and meaningful day and weekend.
