Register Now As many writers know, agents and editors won't give your work more than ten pages or so to make an impact. If you haven't got them hooked by then, it's a safe bet you won't be asked for more material. Make sure you've got the kind of opening they're looking for! In this invaluable weekend event, you'll get to work with an agent online to review and refine  the first ten pages of your novel. You'll learn what keeps an  agent reading, what are the most common mistakes that make them stop, and the steps you need to take to correct them. The best part is that you'll be working directly with  an agent, who will provide feedback specific to your work.  Here's how it works:  On Friday morning, May 16, you will gain access to a special 60-minute online tutorial presented by agent and editor Paula Munier. It will help you clarify  what you should be looking for in your work.You will  also be notified by email which agent you'll be working  with on Friday. (All times noted are Eastern Time).  After listening to the presentation, you'll spend Friday evening revising your first ten pages as necessary,  given the guidelines provided in the presentation, and you'll email those pages directly to Paula or one  of four additional agents from Talcott Notch Literary,  including Gina Panettieri, Rachael Dugas, and  Jessica Negron, by Saturday morning at 10:00 AM (ET).  They will spend all day Saturday reviewing their assigned pages and providing feedback as to what works  and what doesn't.  All pages with notes will be returned to participants  by 11:00 AM (ET) Sunday morning. Throughout the day  on Sunday, you'll work to revise your pages based on the agent's specific feedback. From 1:00 to 4:00 PM, Paula,  Gina, Rachael, and Jessica. will be available to answer  questions and provide additional feedback via the Writer's Digest University message boards. Only registered students can access these boards. You'll also be able to  ask question of your fellow students. Feel free to share  your work and gain support from your peers.  By 10:00 PM (ET) Sunday night, you'll return your final revised pages to your assigned agent for review. They will spend the next week reading the revised submissions assigned to them, and will provide a final brief one-or-two sentence  critique of your progress no later than May 25. Please note that any one of them may ask for additional  pages if the initial submission shows serious promise. *Please note that all attendees should have the first 10  pages of their novel finished and ready to submit to the agent prior to the beginning of the event.
