Pitching your Manuscript

This half-day workshop gives you the chance to learn about the workings of the publishing industry and ask experienced literary consultant Claire Wingfield all the questions you’ve ever wanted to about the traditional path to publication. We’ll be talking agents and publishers – how to select who to submit to, how to submit to them in the best possible way, and crucially what to do if you gain agent or publisher interest.

Participants will also get the chance to pitch their manuscript, and will gain vital feedback on their pitch material (including submissions cover letter and synopsis).

Writers can choose to submit a cover letter and synopsis prior to the workshop.
