Excited to Present Technique-Based Webinar for MG/YA Writers

October 29, 2019

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be presenting a technique-focused, hour-long Webinar designed to make YA/MG writers stronger self-editors and novelists on Nov 14, 2019. THE ULTIMATE CHECKLIST FOR SUBMITTING YOUR MG/YA TO EDITORS: 10 Tests Your Manuscript Must Pass to Prove It’s Ready to Submit.

It all started with a question that I get all the time: “How do I know when my Middle Grade/Young Adult manuscript is ready to submit to agents or editors? I think it is, but how can I know for sure?” So I devised ten actionable tests for knowing when a novel is really, truly ready to submit . . . along with ways to whip the manuscript into shape if it fails a single one of them. It’s a fun presentation. If you’re a writer, I hope you’ll join me an hour of craft talk.

The Webinar is hosted by SCBWI-Texas: Southwest. Details and registration at http://bit.ly/2pnztn1
