Submission Sunday 8.11.24: Links

The latest links roundup of articles and posts on submitting and writing in general

Happy Sunday, writers! I hope the words have been flowing and the submissions have been received with appreciation. It’s a slow time for litmags in general, but September—when many, many venues open for the first time since spring—is right around the corner.

For our next links roundup, I’m clearing out some articles I’ve had open in my tabs that I hope you’ll enjoy. We’ve got answers to when to follow up with an agent, why it pays to anticipate rejection, what the Olympics can teach us about first drafts, and why you need an author website. There are also prompts and prompts and prompts, a primer on the publishing landscape, a job search site for book careers, and more. Here we go.
