Hi [First name],

If you’re dreaming of signing a publishing deal, you'll first need to secure a literary agent — equal parts gatekeeper and champion of your book. On November 22nd, we’re bringing together industry experts for a one-day conference where you’ll learn how to land a literary agent.

Across four sessions, literary agents and top editors will show you how to perfect your query letter, opening pages, and pitch to stand out. You’ll learn:

What a literary agent actually does (and how to pick the right one)
How to write a query letter that gets agents to request your manuscript
Advice for making your first 10 pages impossible to put down
What agents and publishers are looking for in 2027

At the end of the day, you’ll have the opportunity to receive live feedback on your book pitch from agents Jenna Satterthwaite and Jon Curzon. Register for instructions on how to submit your pitch for consideration.

If you’d just like to watch, there’s no need to submit anything – just tune in!

Your ticket also includes a copy of Reedsy’s querying guide and $25 credit towards a query letter review on the Reedsy Marketplace.
