WHY WAS MY MANUSCRIPT REJECTED?
3 Literary Agents, 3 Opinions
Have you written a children's or YA manuscript that you believe is publishable—only to have it returned with a form rejection by agents and publishers? Are you hungry for feedback on your writing for children? We think we can help!
We are 3 literary agents, in daily contact with clients and publishers, who specialize in children's books (Andrea Cascardi of Transatlantic Literary Agency, Anna Olswanger of Liza Dawson Associates, and Ann Tobias of A Literary Agency for Children's Books). In our full-day workshop we focus on why we think publishers and/or agents rejected your manuscript. This event has proven to be lively with three, possibly different, opinions about the strengths and weaknesses of each manuscript. We offer brief suggestions on how to move forward with the manuscript, and also discuss marketplace considerations, writing tips, and hold a general Q&A session at the end of the day.
