Publishing Your Poetry, with Sarah Browning
Got poems? Want to publish in literary journals but don’t know where to start? Or need an inspirational shot in the arm to send out more poems? This workshop is for you! Workshop leader Sarah Browning has published hundreds of poems in print and online lit journals, including Poetry, The Beloit Poetry Review, Shanandoah, Tinderbox Poetry Journal, Painted Bride Quarterly, and more. She’ll take the mystery out of the process, tell a few hilarious and inspiring stories, walk you through some sample journals’ submission guidelines and the submissions platform Submittable, and leave you with tools and resources to help you get your work out in the world, where it belongs.
This workshop will be held online.
