It’s mid-July at The Whole Utopianotes Catalog. Feast upon the possibilities below, which come to you in the form of funding, fellowships, grants, prizes, jobs, gigs, open calls for submission and classifieds.
Here’s a benediction: May you leave the past behind. May you relive the past, constantly, in vivid detail. The past is passing, forwards and backwards, it does not matter which direction you wish to go, or which direction you wish it would go. You can pour gasoline over memory and it will only smell, never ignite. Don’t ask me why, I don’t make the rules. Instead, get shipwrecked ashore of some soft island and make it work for you. May you never go down with the devil, which is to say, may you never commit to a story so thoroughly wrong in order to protect yourself. May you allow your art to assess fact from fiction. Let it accuse you if it must. Then, feel the good things. Come back to that often. Something about it will teach you everything you need to know about composing an effective resume. Just follow these steps: Think of ten things you have done in your life: a particular job, a picnic, a favorite course, an afternoon well-spent, a book you read, a person you cried in front of and/or who you witnessed crying. Then, develop bulletpoints for the skills you learned during those experiences, i.e. I developed recipes for egg salad or I learned multidirectional databasing or implemented co-counseling techniques or wiped boogers or regularly read upside down to large audiences on a tight-deadline or independently operated an audio console. Finally, organize these things into jaunty categories, maybe meaningless ones: Experience; Education; Skills; Relevant Training; Secret Gifts; Etc. Never write a leading bio; no one ever reads them. Make up lies, see if anyone catches them. Or don’t. The truth is much more interesting. Go forth and prosper.
A note on paid subscriptions: If you find yourself making good use of The Catalog or sharing it with others, consider upgrading to a paid subscription (starting at $5/month, and which comes with a free 30 min. consult with me).

OPPORTUNITIES
Submit to Pearl Press | Issue No. 22
Pearl Press is an online publication that strives to build a proud community of diverse voices in photography and writing. They release bimonthly issues around themed open calls; this month's open call is 'golden hour.' Submissions close on August 9, 2024 by midnight. The concept for Issue No. 22 is ‘golden hour.’ Much like the sun, we are constantly in a transitional period. A small window where we can decide to let things go or take action before the sun sets or rises and a new day begins production. A time to appreciate the beauty around us in its ravishing glow; a warmth that holds us. Send in old work, new work, anything that might feel right. Send an email to ‘contact.pearlpress@gmail.com’ with your written or visual work; include your name, a short bio, title and description of the work. If you are sending visual work, make sure it is at least 300 dpi. If you are submitting written work, please send as a PDF. There is no max or min amount of work you can send, but keep in mind that only some of the work might be selected. Some work from each issue will be displayed on @pearl.press as well, so include a website and Instagram handle if applicable! Thank you and happy submitting!
