The summer issue of Brain, Child contains a story by the excellent Katherine Hester; I read a draft of this story and it's haunting. Pick up a copy of the magazine at places like Whole Foods or Barnes & Noble.
As noted in a few other places, Panverse Publishing has a new Kickstarter project that strikes me as a worthy cause.
Big Bang Big Boom, the new stop-motion graffiti art project from the artist Blu, is pretty effing amazing.

There are a lot of, like a kajillion, posts and tweets and bits of advice out there for the newbie writer, much of which info is common sense and good to listen on.
But what of the not-so-new writer who's suffered some disappointment, who's mid-career and, despite always having done their bestest and adhered to good sense and civility in relations with the publishing industry...just isn't getting the success they might long for?
One word, basically--if you, not-so-new writer must write, take joy in writing and crafting worlds and stories, one word: Persevere.
Crack yourself like an egg full of light, over and over, and just keep doing it, regardless.
