Description

Hear the opening of your manuscript anonymously read aloud and critiqued by a panel of local literary agents. Get expert feedback on your incredibly important first page, and receive suggestions to keep readers’ attention.

TO PARTICIPATE: Bring the first 250 words of your manuscript double-spaced, titled, with its genre (fiction or nonfiction only, please) marked clearly at the top. Given the volume of submissions, we can’t guarantee that yours will be read aloud. This session is not for the thin-skinned!
