Are you working on a novel? Finished a book and preparing to submit to agents? Or just dream of seeing your writing in print? Don’t miss out on this informative class with literary agent Ed Wilson of Johnson & Alcock and Carla Josephson, senior commissioning editor at The Borough Press.

During the session, you’ll learn the ins and outs of the publishing process, the roles of literary agent and publisher, what Ed and Carla look for in submissions and how to maximise your chances of seeing your book published. There are no shortcuts in publishing, but this class will teach you how to avoid the regular pitfalls and errors made by writers, and help you stand out from the crowd.

After the session, you will have the chance to give your writing the best possible chance of getting published by booking a short, one-to-one feedback session. Ten people will have the opportunity to receive tailored feedback from either Carla or Ed during a 15-minute consultation, where they’ll receive advice on how to bring out the strengths in their cover letter and “elevator pitch”.

This offer is an incredible chance to get personalised feedback from two leading experts in the world of publishing. Please bring along your cover letter and novel pitch to the session and have a think about your story before you arrive. Your cover letter should be no more than a page long and your novel pitch should be two paragraphs maximum. During the feedback session, either Ed or Carla will give you expert guidance on your pitch and tips on getting published.
