Writers take all sorts of classes on craft: character building, plotting, thematic elements, etc. BUT what you need to know beyond that is THE INDUSTRY. If you want to see your book on the bookstore shelves, you have to be a student of the business of publishing.

Whether you’re just getting started or you have a completed draft, knowing how to pitch and present your novel is imperative! Your query and first 10 pages are your foot in the publishing door.

Thinking you don’t need that yet because you’re still writing the novel? You know the adage, “Dress for the job you want?” You should be writing for the place on the bookshelf you want.

Start figuring that out for sure now and it will make everything you do in the future easier. So, yeah, this workshop IS for you—whatever stage your novel is in!
