A report on the session by Natasha Sanders-Kay, MagsBC Board Member.
“As an editor, I love going into a piece of writing and helping to break it open.”
“We put many writers on the map who otherwise might have slipped through the cracks of the mainstream literary presses. No book publisher was going to give out a contract if you had no short story or poem published in a lit mag.”
“Be professional, even if you are writing for free; you’re not just building a portfolio, but also a professional reputation.”
“I think the world of Canadian publishing is a wonderful experience. It may not be lucrative, but it is a community of fascinating people. The secret is to not let the economy worry you!”
