Your Book: Mastering the Hook, Query, and Pitch

This class will help you step back and see your fiction or nonfiction work through fresh eyes and a business-based perspective. You will identify the things that make your work unique, marketable, and irresistible to publishing gatekeepers. Then, with lots of examples and time for practice and personal feedback, we’ll work on verbal “elevator pitches,” the short hooks that also are great for query letters. We’ll cover the structure of query letters, and cover some tips and tricks for getting an agent or publisher’s attention.
