Led by Katie Reilly, a freelance journalist and attorney based in the Bay Area in California. Katie's writing generally focuses on women's health, mental health and parenting. Her articles have appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The Washington Post, The Guardian, Elle Magazine, The Boston Globe, Newsweek, USA Today and HuffPost, among other publications.
Getting published is a challenging process for writers. It’s hard to determine where your story would be a good fit and there is often minimal guidance online. It can feel like there is a great divide between you and the editors that you hope to work with.
In this two-hour publishing panel, led by journalist Katie Reilly, we’re hoping to change that dynamic. In two separate forty-minute sessions, we’ll hear from two editors from Off Assignment, Hobart Pulp, Write or Die Magazine, and The Rumpus. There will also be a ten-minute break at the end of the hour and a brief recap after each editor panel.
We are very lucky that Aube Rey Lescure, Deputy Editor at Off Assignment and author of River East, River West, Elizabeth Ellen, Owner and Publisher of Hobart Pulp, Founder/Editor of Short Flight/Long Drive Books and author of several books, including Fast Machine, Kailey Brennan DelloRusso, EIC of Write or Die Magazine and Community Manager at Chill Subs and author of substack In the Weeds, and Robbie Maakestad, Senior Editor at the Rumpus are scheduled to join us.
The editors will talk about the types of stories they’re looking for, what should be included in your cover letter and what makes a story stand out to them. We’ll also learn more about their writing process and insight into the literary magazine landscape. I’ll lead the panels with questions, but students are welcome to ask questions as well.
