Classes & Workshops
Common Writing Mistakes and How to Spot Them February 23 from 10:00 - 1:00. You know the difference between they're, there, and their, but what about between allude, elude, and ilude? When should you use single quotation marks? Is it a "much needed" or a "much-needed" addition? Taught by a professional editor, this class will take you through the most common grammar, punctuation, and spelling mistakes writers make. REGISTER
Market News
Around the 15th of the month, we'll compile a comprehensive list (8-10 pages) of writing contests, calls for submissions, residencies/fellowships, and small presses that will be available as a $3 download.
