Calling all writers!
PitchFest 2016 is weeks away and is shaping up to be the best PitchFest ever offered by ThrillerFest. This event is an overwhelming opportunity for writers of all genres to meet with the best of the best in the book industry.
Four reasons you should attend:
1) The most agents and editors ever gathered at one time to hear your pitches.
2) The best agents and editors.
- The "sellingest" thriller and mystery agents in our industry were invited to attend this year, and over 50 have confirmed that they want to meet you.
3) The largest gathering of editors.
- Six editors from publishers such as Tor/Forge, Kensington, and Audible will be in attendance to hear your pitch.
4) Laser focus on what's hot.
- With audio books on the rise, we've secured Coleen Barr from Audible to join us.
- With Teen and Young Adult books flying off the shelves, we have the largest gathering of agents seeking YA in our history.
5) And for the first time in our event history, we've added a "No Pitch Zone" with experts to help you during the PitchFest event.
- Renowned experts, such as agents Janet Reid and Barbara Poelle, along with editors Chantelle Aimee Osman and Shannon Jamieson Vasquez will be available to assist you with your query letter or review your first page and offer pointers.
