To those authors working on Young Adult fiction...I'm teaching a class this month at San Diego Writers' Ink, called Writing, Pitching and Selling Fiction for Young Adults (YA). The class will be held at the Ink Spot on Sat March 31st from 2:30 to 5:30.
I've worked with quite a few YA authors in the last few years--on everything from story arc and plot construction to book distribution--including marketing and social media. Most of them are now published or represented.
We'll talk about what makes successful YA books "tick", how to find and pitch to agents and publishers, and how to market and sell your books. Yes, I know that is a lot to cover in 3 hours, but we're gonna do it!
Bring your query letter or a short synopsis, or just a verbal "pitch" of what you're writing, or what you want to write. Don't forget to bring lots of questions...and pass this along to all those YA writers you know.
I hope to see you there,
hasta pronto!
Wish I was in San Diego!
ReplyDeleteHi, my name is Abby and I am currently writing a YA fantasy novel. I just saw the listing for the workshop you hosted at Writers' Ink and am so disappointed to have missed it!!! Just wondering if you will be hosting the workshop again either at Writers' Ink or elsewhere. If so, please email me and I will gladly sign up. Thank you!
