Queery-ing: Navigating Agents and Publishers While Queer
December 3, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
2-hour class via Zoom
What does a “very nice deal” mean in a publishing contract announcement? What’s a pre-empt? How does the trajectory from query to book deal normally work? Navigating the publishing industry is confusing at the best of times, but when you’re also a marginalized writer, it can feel overwhelming. In this 2-hour crash course, we’ll spend the first half in lecture and information—including query letters, industry language, standard agent contract rates, the differences of publishing houses, and more—and the second half in Q&A, all centering queer writers and the particular challenges they may face.
*This class is intended only for writers who identify as queer, trans, and/or nonbinary.
Sliding scale: $50/$75/$100/$150 ($100+$50 scholarship donation)
