The summer is also a good time to catch up on reading some of the many many journals currently publishing.I've always found that the more compelling writing that I read, the more desire I have to write, the more ideas come to me even when I'm not reading or writing. Generating a few new pieces worthy of submitting will also be useful when the fall semester rolls around and the floodgates of journals open for your poems, prose, photography and whatever else you think a journal or magazine or literary website might want to publish. I'd also recommend doing some of my daily writing exercises so that you are given the seed to build your piece off of, which can often be the hardest thing to come up with from scratch.Happy reading, writing and submitting this summer!
