Literary Recession Survival Kit
As the economy dissolves into a whimpering mess, writer-types around the country are wondering what to do with themselves. GalleyCat assembled some helpful links to get us through this crisis.
First of all, start looking for more work. In support of thousands of unemployed journalists, Journerdism has collected countless links for journalists and writers hunting for jobs.
Then, go to the library and research your next article, book, or escape to a country with a better economic situation. TeleRead links to 100 online catalogs that writers can access for free.
Finally, fundraise! Dzanc Books is hosting an upcoming fundraiser, staging a write-a-thon. The post sums up the crisis facing many small houses right now: “With the economy coming completely off its rails, traditional means of raising funds – writing grants, corporate sponsorships, etc. – have become less successful.”
