Receive advice from Gila Green (who has three novels coming out over the next twelve months!) on how to secure publishing deals with traditional publishers in the USA & Australia, how to negotiate your contract, and how to grow your author platform and web presence. With over 30 stories published in literary magazines, she has a wealth of tips on how to get your shorter fiction published. Her second novel, Passport Control has just been released.
Annette Gendler is happy to share her experience with a hybrid publisher and standard book publicist for her memoir Jumping Over Shadows, and why she’s seriously considering self-publishing her next project. While she’s had several pieces published in literary magazines, she has her own take on that: The Year I Gave Up Submitting to Literary Magazines, and will guide you on markets for your short work.
