WHAT IS IT?
This is a special one-day “How to Get Published” writing workshop on Saturday, September 29, 2021, at the Sheraton Boston (Back Bay / Downtown area). In other words, it’s one day full of classes and advice designed to give you the best instruction concerning how to get your writing & books published. We’ll discuss your publishing opportunities today, how to write queries & pitches, how to market yourself and your books, what makes an agent/editor stop reading your manuscript, and more. No matter what you’re writing — fiction or nonfiction — the day’s classes will help point you in the right direction. Writers of all genres are welcome.
This event is designed to squeeze as much into one day of learning as possible. You can ask any questions you like during the classes, and get your specific concerns addressed. We will have literary agents onsite to give feedback and take pitches from writers, as well. This year’s agent and editor faculty so far includes:
- literary agent Amaryah Orenstein (Go Literary)
- literary agent Jeff Herman (The Jeff Herman Agency)
- literary agent Elizabeth Bennett (Jill Corcoran Literary)
- literary agent Laura Gross (Laura Gross Literary Agency)
- literary agent Amy Stern (Sheldon Fogelman Agency)
- literary agent Tracy Marchini (BookEnds Literary)
- literary agent Lana Popovic (Chalberg & Sussman)
- literary agent Lucy Cleland (Kneerim & Williams)
