Getting into Print: Anthologies

If you haven't considered anthologies, you should. According to editor Candace Walsh, anthologies can provide a great way to get a clip and meet other writers. Walsh advises writers to check out anthologies in bookstores and see who is publishing them and then visit the publishers' websites for submissions guidelines and deadlines. (Hint: Follow the guidelines!)

Writer Abroad recently posted a list of upcoming deadlines for anthology submissions. Chicken Soup for the Soul and Traveler's Tales have posted current calls for submissions. Although they don't have any open calls currently, Seal Press frequently publishes anthologies on women's issues and is worth keeping an eye on.

Do you know any publishing with open calls for anthology submissions?

Welcome to Our Blog

The Women's Writing Group of Zürich is a support network for women writers, from aspiring novelists to published poets, and we've started a blog to provide resources, space to publish, and inspiration for our members.

On our home page you'll find posts about publishing opportunities, author interviews, and recent work from our members. (Our members' work is also archived on the Our Stories page.) You'll find resources on everything from grammar to self-publishing in the Writers Tool Kit, and exercises from previous Women's Writing Group meetings on the next tab.

If you're a member of the group and would like to guest post or share a story, please contact us.
