In the last couple of weeks I have been really putting my mind to writing and getting published, for countless months I have wondered if I would ever be able to write for any one of the numerous “cool Jewish collaborative” sites. Just last week I was asked by Lilit Marcus of Jewcy.com if I wanted to write for them, unpaid unfortunately but I was honored especially after being told that Jewcy is the cream of the crop when it comes to online Jewish writers communities.
Then just yesterday I was surprised when Jewschool another one of the large collaborative sites linked me in a post. Jewlicious is the other one, but they actually link to me once in a while mainly because I know the creator from the international Jewish bloggers convention I was invited to in Israel.
I am in the process of rewriting several posts for Jewish Voices so hopefully that will work out.
I have an article coming out in this weeks Jewish Press and I think next months New Voices Magazine, the Dallas Jewish Journal is giving me a column as well.
If anyone reading this has any insight, tips or knows anyone who may interested in publishing some of my work or wishes that I write something for them please email me at frumsatire@gmail.com
Here is a link to my profile on Jewcy
Hope you find paid writing gigs
Does this mean no more grammar errors? 😮
Mazal Tov! It seems you’ve arrived.
Does this also mean no more spelling errors?
That name Lilit is so hot…Don’t know if you know, but that was the name of the first wife of Odom Harishon, whose ass got booted out of Gan Eden and currently leads (from what I understand) a life of “crime” on the Other Side (Sitra Achra gang). That only adds to the sultriness of the name…
Lilit, if you’re reading this, PLEASE let me know if I got what it takes to be a part of the Jewcy family too! I gots some writing skillz that I think would be a perfect addition to your Jewcy site!
Shira- Jewcy has a bunch of full time editors on staff to counter my horrible spelling skills.
It definitely means that I can be a little more uh “open” then I would be on this blog and write more of what I want to write. I kind of sensor myself here.
sensor |?sens?r|
noun
a device that detects or measures a physical property and records, indicates, or otherwise responds to it.
ORIGIN 1950s: from sensory , on the pattern of motor.
Just the opposite Hesh- On your OWN site you should be more free to express yourself as opposed to someone else’s!
Unless you don’t want to piss off the advertisers you got here…
Dude Jewcy sucks -buncha loony hipsters
Hesh,
Happy you found some writing work. I realize it’s not going to pay your bills, but networking is good and it will add to your experience, although I find Jewcy to “gay” for my taste.
Good luck.
Lilit Baby,
In the words of Homer Simpson:
“I’m not gay…but I’ll learn.”
lkwd bum I agree with the hipster part but any site that has write ups in the Washington Post is good for my credentials, besides I am trying to mix things up a bit.
The request came with a comment about how I can bring non” borscht belt” humor to the mix.
hi,
write beginning to commenting yourself at first. The closest chapters always don’t come in light at once!
I hope you will be mounting!
good luck!
Well said Gandhi……
