You’ve written and edited a great story,
novel, poem, article or post. You’ve submitted it to agents and publishers and
now there’s nothing else to do but wait for the cascade of acceptances, right?
Wrong.
Now it’s time to talk about your writing and
yourself as a writer. Agents, publicists, publishers, interviewers, readers:
everyone wants to know who you are and why they should read your work.
What do you tell them?
If you can’t pitch your writing and
yourself, your writing just may not get read. Don’t stand in the way of a good
story.
Friday, March 20 from 6 to 7 PM, Lancaster
