WHY
Agents. As always, the centerpiece of our annual conference is one-on-one pitch sessions with literary agents from across the country, and this year is no exception! (Click here for a partial list of participating agents.)
Expert sessions with publishing pros on the craft of writing and paths to publishing. From writing historical fiction to the business of writing and more, our sessions are designed to support your literary endeavors! (Click here for specific times and locations.)
A chance to make your publishing dream a reality during this time when so many things have been canceled, postponed, or rendered unrecognizable!
REGISTRATION IS LIMITED!
To maintain some social distancing, we are limiting registration to 150 attendees.
$349 (includes three agent-pitch sessions). Early bird special: Register by December 31, 2021, and received four agent pitches. Click here to register.
REFUND POLICY
We guarantee a full refund until April 15, 2022. No refunds after that date.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
We reserve the right to shift to an all-virtual conference if the ongoing pandemic requires it. In that event, agent-pitch sessions will be conducted via Zoom (we’ve done it before and promise it works).
SAFETY PROTOCOLS
Proof of vaccination against covid-19 is required. Additionally, we will follow all masking and social-distancing requirements of the state and local government, as well as of the Marriott Corporation.
