You’re ready to get your work out there. Now what? “The multifaceted publishing world can be intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be!” says instructor Jennifer Lewis. “This three-hour class will equip writers with the knowledge and practical tools they need to confidently submit their work to contests, literary journals, and small presses.”
For beginning through more experienced writers, this class aims to demystify the sometimes confusing process of getting published while offering real-world insights and inspiration for success. Jennifer will take you through the publishing process from start to finish, including figuring out which journals and presses are right for your work, writing a cover letter and bio, and formatting your manuscript for submission. You’ll learn about various online tools and resources available for organizing and tracking submissions and get quick, hands-on experience with a couple of them. During group discussion, Jennifer will emphasize why it’s important to rack up rejections and she’ll address the vulnerability of submitting work.
Jennifer says, “In addition to winning literary contests and publishing my short story collection with a small press, I’ve worked at a literary journal and run a small press. I’m excited to share the inside scoop from the writer’s side and the publisher’s side.”
