Erika Dreifus · The Practicing Writer 2.0: A Newsletter from Erika Dreifus

For many years—since long before Substack arrived on the scene—I’ve been curating weekly “Monday Markets and Jobs” posts on the Practicing Writing blog, where everyone can still find them (albeit later in the day than in the past). But not too long ago, I began sharing this information early every Monday morning via Substack, too, as a benefit for paid subscribers.

Reminder: These weekly posts are supplements to the free monthly newsletter, allowing me to amplify opportunities that I may not have caught in time for each month’s edition. The July issue, packed with 55+ opportunities, went out to all subscribers at the end of June. Even as the August edition approaches—expect it at week’s end—plenty of opportunities listed in July’s remain open for submissions or applications; ditto for our most recent supplements from July 20, July 13, and July 6. Be sure that you haven’t missed anything; the July issue will be archived (with access for paid subscribers only) once the August newsletter goes out.

Another note about these Monday posts: Unlike the monthly newsletter, which filters out listings that may be limited to writers in a single city/state/province, these posts do carry such localized opportunities (jobs included).

But in all cases, calls and competitions must not charge submission or application fees, and they must offer (specified) payment for winning/published work (or, in the case of residencies, they must not charge application or participation fees).

And now—the latest gleanings.
