Submission Strategy Plan
Literary Times Editorial Service:
A clear, long-term submission roadmap, not just a list of magazines. Built for writers who are serious about getting published.
Stop Submitting Blindly
Most writers send their work out without a plan, submitting to whatever journal they stumble across, missing deadlines, and wasting months waiting on responses that never come. A strategic approach changes everything.
With a Submission Strategy Plan, every submission is intentional. You’ll know exactly where your work belongs, when to send it, and what to do while you wait.
