Submit, Publish, Repeat: 2023 Edition

This book is the definitive guide to publishing your creative writing in literary journals.

In this book you’ll learn the nuts and bolts of getting your writing published in literary journals. You’ll learn how this can build your writing career, and how to avoid the common mistakes most new authors make when starting the publication process.

There is quite a bit more in this book, including a discussion of reading fees, contests, and anthologies.

The book also features lists of literary journals open to submissions, including journals that respond quickly, prestigious journals, paying journals, and more.

The information that pertains directly to submitting in Submit, Publish, Repeat has remained consistent over the past seven editions of the book. Although each time I update the book to include more details about specific aspects of the process. I also try to note the changes that have taken place in the world of literary journals.  

Among other updates, this edition of the book includes new markets, more factors to take into consideration while choosing where to submit, and additional details in terms of the logistics of submitting.

The book is available, completely free.
