Calling all writers! No matter what stage of your latest project you're in at the moment, you might be wondering how to frame a pitch, find an agent,and sell yourself without selling your soul. Mystified as to how some writers get their big break? Not anymore! The Asian American Writers' Workshop will be holding its first annual publishing conference this December, and we'd love for you to come join us! Throughout this all-day six-panel event, we'll help you get out there and forge connections in the publishing world. And for a separate fee, we'll also be offering one-on-one consultation sessions with venerable agents and editors from agencies and publishers such as the Simon & Schuster imprint Touchstone, and William Morris Endeavor. This is your chance to get valuable tips and finally get your manuscript out of the slush pile and onto the shelves. Open to writers of all ages, races, and genres!
Tickets are $200. For the list of panel speakers and a schedule of the all-day event, click here. Wish I could make it!
