T.J. Butler

Are you interested in publishing your short fiction and poetry in literary journals and magazines?

Have you considered it, but don’t know where to start? Do you wonder if your work is even good enough to submit?

You’ll learn the basics to get started: knowing when your work is ready to submit; finding and researching journals; writing cover letters; crafting your author’s bio; navigating Submittable; tracking and organizing your submissions; strategies for submitting; vocabulary to help you represent yourself as a pro; “Literary Twitter,” and much more.

Bring a notebook and a pen. You’ll leave with the tools necessary to begin submitting your work to journals ranging from approachable to top-tier.
