Query Workshop and Pitch Practice
Saturday, September 21st, 9:30-10:30 AM
Do you have a query but need help revising? How is your query different from your synopsis? Does your pitch land, but need help with clarity, arc, and poignancy? Leah Pierre can provide query feedback for agent readability, and help pitch the piece you’re marketing – not writing. This workshop is open to the first 8 registrants.
$30 Members/50 Nonmembers
Leah Pierre is an agent at Ladderbird Literary Agency. A Texas native, she briefly moved to the East Coast to attend Rosemont College and to pursue her dream of working in publishing. She graduated from Rosemont College with a B.A. in English and History. Leah then went on to pursue and receive her M.A. in Publishing from her alma mater as well. Having accomplished her dream of working in publishing, she has since moved back to the South to begin her next adventure and continue searching for the next commercial YA or Adult project that will hook her (or make her cry).
