@tar_press Computer says no. Link for submissions?

Submissions now open for the sixth season of Tar Press.

@anniegarthwaite @agent_luck @canongatebooks The first few pages read like a masterclass in prose. I can’t wait to study the whole novel.

How to describe it? A love story. A Western. A tragedy? A farce? #AHeartinWinter is all these things and more. Most importantly though, it is simply exquisitely written. Every sentence. Every paragraph. Every aching turn of phrase. Lord, to write like this. I'd give a limb.

Death. How could I resist? I'm pleased to say my short story 'In the moment' has been published and printed by the wonderful Matt Potter over at Pure Slush. #BringoutyerDead

@KennysBookshop Thanks for posting my signed version @KennysBookshop. Thanks to DHL, the cover looks like Paula soaked up the last of her vodka with it.💦#TheSpencerEffect @agent_luck

@HFLane_writing I’m so naive. I never even imagined this existed in our community. I know we have some nuts in our classes. I thought they added a little color to the experience. But for the weird and wicked to put their awfulness upon you? That’s so terrible and I’m proud you’re calling it out.

@thebeavermag Bear with Beaver. I got hit by a van, thrown from my bike, then crushed. Lets just say I’m a little slow off the mark this month!

Two days open and we've gotten mostly poetry... Where are the prose writers at👀

@thatsnicethat The book inspired my childhood reading. A movie I watch yearly. And now you dare match this? Bring it on @porksmith and team.

@JaneFallon Easy. Get yourself a writer in residence spot. Would love you to share a masterclass here in the Dam @JaneFallon with the #internationalwriterscollective

@WyldbloodPress Sausages.

Looking at submissions today - can't face another talking dog story. Just...no.

@thebeavermag It’s why seven years in, I keep up with my writing classes. I cannot write without the people who hold up a mirror to my work. Online, or face to face, I will always grow this way.

How do y'all find friends to help edit and read your work before you start sending it out? I'm struggling to submit because nothing feels finished🥺

@JamesAHogg2 I walked into a house off Orme crescent and sat in a room to be interviewed by the agent who rented her space from Milligan and Sykes. I couldn’t hear her. I was too consumed by the sound of laughter coming from the two old men in the next room.

No reason. Just a great snap that might raise a smile or two. Good afternoon.

@thatsnicethat Please let it be #MarkMylod directing this.

@thebeavermag I’ve nothing against Submittable. But it’s the lit journals who spam me with their $20 award entries to win. The ones who do not rank, nor raise my readership. Free, or €3, that’s my limit for entry. I find the top 300 tiers mostly don’t go above that.

What is the best engine to sell our chapbook on? Lmk why submittable and etsy are capitalist soul suckers

Is it me or is it me? Last time I paid and won the prize, and received nothing. Nada. Not even a copy of the Ocodillo review (I came first place with). Suggest some care of your winning writers @PressGaia
