You’re a writer.
We know it.
You know it.
We also know that sometimes the hardest part isn’t getting your ideas down on paper, but getting your manuscript out of the slush pile. It’s hard to know where to start, especially if you’ve got a full-time job or are raising a kid.
Enroll in the AAWW Publishing Conference and meet writers and editors from The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Wylie Agency, Little, Brown & Co., Other Press, Tweed’s, William Morris Endeavor, Sterling Lord Literistic, n+1 and Guernica.
Guests include novelists Min Jin Lee, Alexander Chee, Jay Caspian Kang, Tayari Jones, and Paul Beatty.
Open to writers of all ages, races, and genres.
