Tips for Becoming a Published Writer

Panel

How do you get your work seen by a publishing house? In what state does your manuscript need to be in? Are there genres that are more popular than others? These and many more questions will be answered in this session with publishing expert Louise Ryan, publishing manager for young readers Kristin Gill (Penguin Random House), and a literary agent. They’ll cover every step of the process, from being noticed, to the various steps to publication, both locally and internationally.
