Per the Chicago Writing Workshop website, this writing event (June 24, 2017) is a wonderful opportunity to get intense instruction over the course of one day, pitch a literary agent or editor (optional), get your questions answered, and more. Note that there are limited seats at the event (200 total). They will inform everyone directly on the website when seats are closed.

Here are a few of this years faculty that will be in attendance:

• editor Lauren Jablonski (St. Martin’s Press)
• literary agent Alice Speilburg (Speilburg Literary)
• literary agent Jennifer Unter (The Unter Agency)
• literary agent Laura Zats (Red Sofa Literary)
