In total, you’ll find 103 pitch calls, 48 writing jobs, 25 contests, and 29 residencies in this edition.

In addition to Friday’s Pitch, Please, I will send you my personal essays and poem-ish things here, too (on Wednesdays) and highlight brilliant pieces from other writers I admire (on Mondays).

Pitch, Please is an experiment and new-ish subscriber perk. If you are a paid subscriber, please let me know in the comments or via email (juliane@bergmannconsulting.com) if you find this resource helpful.

If you pitch and get a byline, please definitely let me know, so I can celebrate with you!
