Writing Round Up, Cool Exercise, and Submission Opportunity
Write Better Now
Every Monday, we’re sending out a quick round-up of what we talked about and some cool links to check out to help all of us become better writers.
As a reminder, on Wednesdays the WRITE BETTER NOW podcast comes out here (and everywhere).
Later in the week there is a bonus post for paid subscribers because, honestly, it’s super kind of you to support me that way, and I want to make sure to make it’s worth your while. Thank you for being here.
Last week’s posts.

SUBMISSION POSSIBILITY!
THE AUTHORS GUILD
Each month the guild curates a list of contests, fellowships, and other writing opportunities with approaching deadlines. Opportunities are posted in the month prior to their deadlines so that writers have time to submit work or applications.
