📚 Overview
Most authors dream of getting a book deal, but as a new writer, the road to publication can seem long and obscure.
In this one-day session, we break down potential paths to publication, from digital-first publishing to independent presses to traditional publishing with the help of a literary agent. You’ll hear directly from editors and agents who have worked in the publishing industry for years as well as authors who have successfully secured a book deal (including through unconventional paths).
If you’re wondering how and where to submit your manuscript, join us for a day of presentations, panel discussions, and Q&As with top publishing professionals as we pull back the curtain on this secretive industry.
