You're invited to a “How to Get Published” workshop in Niagara-on-the-Lake

“How to Get Published”

~ Everything you need to know

Note: We have a revised time and place:

Saturday, May 11. 2024
12:00 – 2:30 /4:00 p.m.
Niagara-on-the-Lake Public Library, 10 Anderson Lane, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. (Map here.)

If you've ever dreamed of becoming a published author, this workshop is for you. We’ll focus on the process of submitting to an agent or publisher, and show you exactly how to write a query letter that will get a “yes.” Bring all your questions. Come and get ready to be published!

Special Option: Participants are invited to bring a draft of a query letter you might use to interest an agent or publisher in your book. You don't need to prepare anything, but if you like, email me a draft of your query prior to our workshop (and bring 2 hard copies to the workshop).

I’ll critique several queries, perhaps half a dozen during the workshop so that we can all see what works, what doesn’t, and how to make it better. Also, after the formal workshop ends at about 2:30, I’ll stay afterwards to help one-on-one with more queries. ~Brian
