MASTER CLASS: "From Slush Pile to NYT List"

by Katie MacAlister

 

Going from the slush pile to the New York Times list in five years may not be an easy journey, but Katie MacAlister is living proof that it CAN be done. Find out how to achieve such not-so-impossible goals with WriterU's master class featuring the NYT bestselling author. Just 30 people will be subscribed to this intimate workshop, filled with Katie's own tips and tricks designed to help you keep your focus in the sometimes frustrating world of publishing. With plenty of opportunity for Q&A chat, her frank discussion will include:

 

* Creating a five-year plan

* Educating yourself on what works

* Identifying your unique voice

* Knowing what's right for you (and what's not)

* Building your support team

* Avoiding the negative aspects of being an author

 

Katie MacAlister has gone from (utterly heartless) rejection to the top ten on the New York Times bestseller list. With more than thirty books published, ranging from paranormal to young adult to historical to contemporary novels, she's happy to share her experience with writers ready to forge their own path.

 

Prerequisite: Must have completed manuscript ready to send agents/editors.
