What if we helped each other get published?

>> No.7333546

how would we do that?

>> No.7333549

>>7333537
someone on /lit/ is doing just that. there's a 50 dollar prize on it to boot.

Maybe somebody could start a literary magazine and we could all get our stories into it?

>> No.7333566

It's $500 now.

Why don't we create a /lit/ journal for short stories, poems, and excerpts of our shitty novels?

>> No.7333573

The best part about doing this is that it's a lot easier to get published elsewhere if you've already had something published. Editors really look for "I have been previously published in [insert journal here]." It's a sign someone else took a chance on you and was rewarded.

This could actually work...

>>7333590
Does it need to have a theme though each journal? I'd want it to be more open-ended.

>> No.7333600

>>7333590
Neat! This might be just what we need.

>> No.7333602

>>7333590
But is Ideology made by and for the c/lit/s? Also, this >>7333598

what did you guys think of the pieces in issue #0?

>> No.7333629

>>7333615
I really like them. They're actually WELL WRITTEN, which is more than I can say for some of the shit in the New Yorker these days.

>> No.7333636

>>7333602
I think it might be made my someone who's on /lit/ since there's a thread here but I think anyone can send a submission so it's not exactly a "/lit/erary journal".

>> No.7333645

>>7333636
Well if we have that, then cool. I guess having it open generally, as well as to /it/ is better overall so that there's something for the publisher to fall back on if they get too many edgy /r9k/ self-insert submissions.

>Does it need to have a theme though each journal? I'd want it to be more open-ended.

it seems like they have two parts: one for the theme and one not for the theme

only the best theme submission (which will be mine) wins the $50 tho D:

>> No.7333959

the journal would need to be /lit/ affiliated without being /lit/ affiliated yanomesane aint nobody tryna have their name and 4chan in the same sentence

>> No.7333979

>>7333959
It should be called "The E/lit/ist"

This smells lightly of truth. Hard and sweet and mixed with the air.
