&lt;p&gt;Building a platform amongst your readers is important, but it&amp;rsquo;s also important to gain exposure in the literary world. Sam Staley (SR Staley), award-winning author, film critic, and educator&amp;nbsp;talks about the benefits of literary competitions and ways to find them. There are many benefits to entering literary competitions, but some of the obvious ones are the validation it can provide an author and the critical feedback they offer. The validation that is offered is not only a personal endorsement that provides helpful indications for authors, it also lends an author credibility as he or she submits work or applies for speaking gigs. Staley explains how authors can leverage the feedback from literary competition to raise their profiles and turn writing into a full-time job. Finally, Staley explains what authors should look for as they submit work. What should authors know about competition rubrics? How many genres should an author submit to? Do all competitions allow you to submit to multiple genres? Listen to Staley in the clip below to learn more!&lt;/p&gt;
