Here are two great ways to earn a publishing credential and put a little money in your pocket. I think I will look into this too. While querying, and working on my next project, I would love to have something published in a magazine. First off is Mad Magazine. They want to see your silliness. I think I will check this one out. You know how much I love silly. :-)
And Hunger Mountain is taking submissions too. They accept poetry and with all the poetry that writers were posting yesterday,(check out Shannon M. she started it.:-)) I thought you might be interested in this. Oh, and Shannon, I didn't know about it until late last night or I would have graced you with some of my poetry. Alas, it's probably better left for my eyes only. :-)
A lot of doctor visits coming up. Please remember my sweet Christopher in your prayers. Thank you. :-)
Cool! Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeletePrayers I can offer. Sending my poetry in for submission? Not sure I should be doing that! Now that silliness is endearing. I'll have to check them both out. Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteBish, you are very welcome. Happy weekend to you. :-)
ReplyDeleteNisa, thank you for the prayers. And send in that poetry. The silliness is near and dear to my heart. Happy weekend. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the great information. My family swears there isn't a funny bone in my body!
ReplyDeleteSwing by my place I have something for you.
Tamika, there's a funny bone in there. And what about a poetry bone? I'm swinging by right now. Have a great weekend. :-)
ReplyDeleteI will be praying for you guys.
ReplyDeleteSome silliness in MAD Magazine sounds like fun. Hav a great time with that.
(i did mean Have)
ReplyDeleteSome of the best paying markets are nonfiction features, and it's often easiest to break in to association and trade publications (I've worked with freelancers on both). In some cases, editors want to see a clips file (samples of your published work), so you might need a few nonpaying gigs under your belt first. The nice thing about assignment work is that it's industry practice to put a "kill fee" stipulation in your contract--that is, you get paid something for your effort, even if they choose not to publish.
ReplyDeleteTricia, thank you for praying. You KNOW how much I appreciate it. The MAD Magazine does sound like a hoot. Have a super weekend. :-)
ReplyDeleteLaurel, thanks for the info. I have one onopaying gig under my belt. I think the MAD Magazine sounds like fun. Have a great weekend. :-)
ReplyDeleteCool links, Robyn. Thanks for posting them.
ReplyDeleteI'm known to make people laugh their butts off, so I may try to get paid for it, too. hehe
Hugs and prayers for Christopher.:)
Christopher is in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the writing info.
Heyya Laura. Thank you and getting paid for being funny. I like that. :-) Have a nice weekend.

ReplyDeleteYou and your family are always in my thoughts. Have a great weekend. We'll miss you next week.
Pat, I know that I know we are always in your thoughts. And that is a wondrous thing. I really am thankful for you. Hey, you can be pretty mad. It's on the opposite side of your Haiku side. I'll miss y'all too. Wish me luck tidying everything up as I get ready to query. Have a super, super weekend. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'll be thinking of Christopher, Robyn. Good luck!

ReplyDeleteHave you tried letter pages in magazines. I live in England so I'm not sure about your magazines, but it was just a thought.
