‘How To Get Published’ Workshop

•
Caroline Taggart will be advising aspiring authors on how to get published. An insider’s look at do’s and don’ts – making yourself sound interesting but not arrogant; approaching an agent, writing your pitch – with plenty of time for your own questions.

She is the editor of Writer’s Market UK 2010 (The Insider’s Guide To Getting Your Book Published) and her books include I Used To Know That Stuff You Forgot From School (2008) and A Classical Education (2009).

“Writing the piece is only half the battle,” says Caroline, who has been an editor of non-fiction books for almost 30 years and has covered a wide range of subjects from natural history and business to gardening and astronomy. During that time she has worked with numerous high-profile authors and lesser-known writers.

You may think writing the book is the hard part – but you’ve only just started! This workshop looks at various stages in the publishing process, from writing a proposal, through finding an editor and hooking a publisher.

Writers taking their first steps towards publication will learn invaluable information and practical advice on how to get their work published.

It’s insider advice not to be missed.
