This week, Grant and Brooke talk with Dennis James Sweeney about his new book, How to Submit. If you've ever felt intimidated by the submissions process; wondered what some of the common pitfalls are when it comes to submitting, or if you need a reframe about how to think about submitting, this show is for you. Dennis has an encouraging and helpful way of submitting—thinking about it as based on community, conversation, and through the lens of trying to find the best home for your work—whether it's an op-ed, an essay, a poem, or a book. Dennis is one of the most encouraging guests we've had in a while—and if you’re wanting to get published, this is an episode you’ll come back to again!
