Dos and Don’ts of Submitting to Literary Journals / Kevin Morgan Watson

Press 53 publisher and editor in chief Kevin Morgan Watson will discuss—and answer your questions about—the ins and outs of submitting your short stories to literary journals. Knowing what not to do is often more important than know what to do regarding formatting, simple punctuation and grammar, and also etiquette. Kevin Morgan Watson is publisher and editor in chief at Press 53, which he founded in October 2005. Located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Press 53 has published authors from thirty-five states, producing 250 titles that have earned more than ninety awards. He co-founded Prime Number Magazine with Press 53 author Clifford Garstang, a free online quarterly journal of distinctive poetry and short fiction. In March of 2019, Press 53 launched the High Road Festival of Poetry and Short Fiction, making it the only festival in the U.S. that focuses exclusively on poetry and short fiction.

Your ticket purchases access to Kevin's workshop and a Press 53 book of Kevin's choice.
