Resources

My heart and brain are scattered and tipsy, therefore tonight’s post will be comprised of resources:

If I haven’t talked about it enough, Brevity is an online journal of concise literary nonfiction. It also has a fantastic archive of craft essays, which can be viewed here:

If you are looking for jobs, grants, events, and more, you can search here for opportunities in any medium and at varying career stages. Even though this is the New York Foundation for the Arts, links are not limited to NY alone.

If you are actively submitting to literary journals and want to know the inside scoop about how long certain magazines take to respond, their percentage of acceptance, numbers of submissions, reader reviews, and more, check out New Pages and Duotrope:

Finally, if you are a freelance writer and looking to better understand your rights and responsibilities, there is no greater resource than the Editorial Freelancer’s Association:
