Submissions: Do This Now

I've just discovered that Mslexia runs a fabulous 'Get Published' workshop on their website. This is just a very quick post to get this out to you so you can get your submissions ready. This page on their site covers the submissions process, literary agents, finding an agent/publisher etc.  Before you click off to that page, make sure you look at the note below. Get published page.

Mslexia also invites writers to submit their work, both for their online and hard copy versions of the magazine. Their contributors' guidelines are very detailed so make sure you look at the relative information before sending in submissions. 

New additions to writing jobs page

Before I go off to enjoy the rest of my week-end, here are a couple of writing opportunities to add to my writing jobs page. Follow the link for some amazing writing and verse jobs.

Writing Opportunities - Update

Don't forget that A Blogger's Books brings you a comprehensive page of writing opportunities advertised in most English speaking countries. I've just updated the page so get your writing submissions socks on.

I've found, among other things, a very impressive poetry site that pays $10.00 per line for your poetry. In the mix, I've also included a magazine which pays £200.00 for your photo submissions, not a bad job if you can get it!  Fancy writing verses for greeting cards? There's a site for you too.

Click on the writing submissions link and choose which one you'll write for today. Don't forget, if you find this writing opportunities update useful, I'd appreciate it if you submit this current page to any of the social networking sites below or to one of your favourite ones.

Good luck with your submissions!

Writing Opportunities Feature Update

This week while my laptop was down, I did a considerable amount of research to bring you some fine sites which accept unsolicited work from new and established writers.

Take a look at the writing opportunities page on this blog and find something that’s suitable for you. It's one of the labels in my link-bar above.

You don’t have to be an author to find this new feature useful. I’ve found some fun sites accepting and paying for poetry and verses in greeting cards. If you’ve ever read a card and thought, ‘I can do better than that!’ Here is your big opportunity.

If you’re a poet or have an opinion piece, there’s paid work out there for you. If you can knit or crochet and suggest original ideas or patterns, I found some magazines willing to pay you for them.

Don’t miss out. This ‘opportunities’ page is updated every 6-8 weeks or so. Hopefully, I can find something made for you. If nothing strikes your fancy, maybe my link to paid tips, how-tos, and hints will be of interest to you.
