| EssayGirl | Posted – 2/23/2008 1:32:38 PM | show profile Ringo, Mediabistro just did a two part piece on the personal essay market. It lists publications that accept personal essays--many of them memoir type..... Since last summer, I have had two accepted by the Washington Post Style Plus and one published in Skirt in Dec. I would check both--and those listed on the MB list. |
