Gotta’ have that grit. Gotta’ have that hustle

If you’re trying to get your art or writing published in literary magazines, you should really read Lincoln Michel’s Ultimate Guide to getting published on BuzzFeed. Michel is the Editor of Electric Literature.

Some of you might be thinking … why BuzzFeed? What does BuzzFeed know about literature? Well, BuzzFeed has been incorporating a lot more literary coverage. Saeed Jones is their Literary Editor. He’s launching an Emerging Writers Fellowship and a lit mag sometime next March. And Michel’s guide is published in their Books section.

“The most important part of submitting is persistence,” says Lincoln Michel.

Keep writing! Keep submitting!

Just remember, persistence really is key.
