*For many years—since long before Substack arrived on the scene—I’ve been curating “Monday Markets and Jobs” posts on the Practicing Writing blog, where everyone can still find them (albeit slightly later in the day). But I’ve begun sharing this #MondayMotivation via Substack, too, as a benefit for paid subscribers.

Quick reminders:

1) Have you had a chance to catch up with the latest issue of The Practicing Writer 2.0, which went out last Wednesday (and features dozens of fee-free and paying/funded opportunities)? If not, here it is once again.

2. Unlike the monthly newsletter, which filters out listings that may be limited to writers in single city/state/province, these weekly posts do include such localized opportunities. In all cases, calls and competitions must not charge submission/application fees, and they must offer payment for winning/published work (or, in the case of residencies, they must not charge fees for attendance/participation).

Each week in this space, Practicing Writing shares no-fee, paying markets for writers of fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction: competitions, contests, and calls for submissions. These weekly posts complement monthly issues of The Practicing Writer newsletter, where you’ll always find more listings, none of them limiting eligibility to residents of a single municipality, state, or province. (But this blog does share those more localized opportunities, including jobs.)

As always, if you’d like to share a specific opportunity listed here, please credit the blog for the find. Thanks for respecting the time and effort that I put into researching, curating, and posting this information! I do notice, and I appreciate the courtesy.

#SundaySentence

Every weekend I participate in David Abrams’s “#SundaySentence” project, sharing the best sentence I’ve read during the past week, “out of context and without commentary.”

Okay, I’m going to break the rules a little bit this week.

Having just read the 75 essays in On Being Jewish Now, a new essay anthology edited by Zibby Owens, I’m going to whittle down a lot of possible Sunday Sentences to TWO. (Please admire my restraint, even as I disobey the usual practice!)

Words of the Week: Zibby Owens

As she promotes the new anthology she’s just edited and published, On Being Jewish Now, Zibby Owens seems to be ubiquitous! But if you somehow haven’t “met” her yet, her recent conversation with Deborah Kolben is a fine place to become acquainted.

P.S. I am currently reading On Being Jewish Now, and even just a few essays in, I can recommend it.
