Practical advice from agents and editors
What is a pitch and why is it important? How do writers succinctly convey what their book is to other people?
How to pitch your book explores different pitching scenarios along the publishing journey – how to do it and what might be expected.
We’ll explore:
- Pitching to an agent (including how to write a synopsis and query letter)
- Elevator pitches
- Comps – what are they and why are they used in publishing?
Panel:
Frankie Edwards – Fiction Editor, Hachette UK
Aki Schilz – Director, The Literary Consultancy
Euan Thorneycroft – agent at A M Heath Literary Agency
Suitable for writers of fiction and non-fiction.
