Commonplace

"Commonplaces are a way to compile knowledge, usually by writing information into books. Such books are essentially scrapbooks filled with items of every kind: recipes, quotes, letters, poems, tables of weights and measures, proverbs, prayers, legal formulas. Commonplaces are used by readers, writers, students, and scholars as an aid for remembering useful concepts or facts they have learned. Each commonplace book is unique to its creator's particular interests." -Wikipedia-

The online journal Monologging.com invites the graduate students of CWLA (yes, you specifically!) to participate in its Travelogue contest. You can find the guidelines here. Go forth and enter, some time before Nov. 30. Founder Jeffrey Barken is also looking for volunteers to contribute book, movie, arts, fashion, and theatre reviews in addition to fiction and poetry. 
 
Also, don't forget that Poets and Writers magazine keeps an ongoing list of grants and awards and lists publication information for approximately a jillion journals, in addition to useful articles about writing and writing careers. You don't even have to subscribe, though they would be grateful if you did.
