The main topic of the day is how to submit short stories, flash fiction pieces, and poetry to literary magazines and journals. We discuss the proper ways to submit, give some tips on how to improve your chances of getting accepted, and we talk about some of the differences between submitting to literary journals and genre publications. There’s a lot of great info in this one.
