GET PUBLISHED IN A WEEKLY

GET PUBLISHED ONLINE: GET PUBLISHED IN A WEEKLY
A few weeks ago I wrote to My Weekly asking if there was any reason students should be wary of being published on a ‘low-volume’ traffic website like Writing Life in case it should jeopardise the chance of the work being accepted in the magazine. Here is the reply I received within about three weeks:

Dear Bernie,

Thank you for your letter addressed to Harrison Watson (who has now retired).

Please do not discourage your students from submitting work to My Weekly just because this has been published on low-volume writers' websites. All we would ask is that students should disclose any previous publication of their work when they submit it, as the publication history may dictate the rights we can buy if the work is acceptable.

If you would like to receive copies of our contributors' guidelines, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Best wishes,

Sally
