Great Writing for a Good Cause
Our friends at Dzanc have put together a writing program that’s all-around sweet. The Dzanc Sessions is a series of workshops, from mentorships for in-progress writers to essays to short-form writing, led by established pros. Signing up gets you access to an online classroom that works like a private social network — and proceeds from the program go toward supporting charitable programs in schools and communities, as well as to the publication of Best of the Web. (We’re partial to the 2008 edition.) If you’re interested in exploring a new form or giving your existing work a boost, it’s a win-win.

Submissions period for poetry, fiction, creative prose and art for The Mom Egg 2012 Vol. 10 will be July 15 through Sept. 30, 2011. That issue will be a themed issue on “The Body”.
