Tired of low pay?
Writing and publishing is hard enough. Finding publishing opportunities that actually pay their writers can seem impossible. Worse still, many publications charge their writers a fee just to submit their work, meaning that trying to get published can mean you lose money.
Have a talent for poems, art, or speculative stories and want to make a quick buck?
One of the top techniques we use in the Writing Gym to get creative juices flowing is doing short writing exercises apart from your main work in progress.
That’s right – we tell writers to stop working on their novel and write something else for a little while instead. It seems counterproductive, but it can seriously help you get out of your head, let go of expectations, and get into your creative zone.
Trust us, it works. There’s a reason our writers finish and publish their novels so quickly.
What if I told you that you could take an hour or two today to use this technique, not only to unlock your creativity but also to get paid and published too?
Sounds too good to be true, right? It’s not.
Ever sit down to write, and nothing seems to flow, no matter what you do? It sounds like you’ve suffered from writer’s block. If writer’s block is a common obstacle for you, read on to discover how you can get over your block and back into the creative zone.
First off, let’s take a look at what writer’s block can look like. Some blocked writers will sit in front of the keyboard or a blank page, unsure what to write. Others will procrastinate or anything else that fits under the guise of “writing” but isn’t actually writing. When we let writer’s block, procrastination, and life get in the way, manuscripts can take years to get out the door, bringing stress and frustration.
That’s why I work with writers on getting into the creative zone and staying there. Many writers who have worked with me for just one session have gone on to write productively far beyond the time that we were together. This is because I’ve guided them to tap into the way that their brain works to keep their creative juices flowing.

Publishing– as many of you already know– can be even harder than writing. And what makes it even harder is many major publishers open and close their doors to submissions throughout the year. As if that wasn’t enough, there’s another, even greater obstacle: many publishers require you to have an agent before submitting anything at all.
So many hoops to jump through, none of which allow you to spend time doing what you really want to do: writing.
But publishing doesn’t have to be so hard. If you know where to look for opportunities and support, it can become a relatively straightforward process. That’s what we’re here to do.
Are you missing out on publishing opportunities because of the submission cost?
While publishing your work can bring in extra cash, it feels like a zero-sum or even a negative-sum game for many authors. As submission fees stack up, publishing begins to feel like a financially risky endeavor.
Good news: It doesn’t have to be that way, and you certainly shouldn’t let it stop you from publishing. Many publications don’t charge a submission fee. And yes, they still pay you if they do decide to publish your work. Don’t miss out on a chance to get published. Submit now.
