Monday Morning Markets/Jobs/Opportunities

If you're finding too many literary journals closed to summer submissions, you'll be happy to learn that Crazyhorse will welcome your fiction, poetry, or nonfiction/essays throughout the year. Pays: $20/"page of layout". Encourages submissions via online submission manager. Visit the journal's site here.

Another litmag that reads year-round, The Missouri Review, is offering some first-person insights into the mechanics of its reading process on its blog.

New litmag on the block: Sotto Voce, which is now taking submissions for its first issue. Pays (albeit not very much) on publication. Details here. (via Duotrope.com)
==========
Chuck Sambuchino interviews literary agent Julie Hill, who seems most interested in representing nonfiction, including travel and memoir. And over on the same blog, Kristen Howe alerts us to a new literary agency and what it's looking for.
