Are You Ready For the Next Step?
At Bundaberg's WriteFest 2010, Commissioning Editors, Jo Butler (Literary Fiction) and Anna Valdinger (Commercial Fiction) from Harper Collins Publishers Australia (Literary Fiction) will be conducting editor/writer interviews.
Harper Collins Publishers Australia are no longer accepting unsolicited manuscripts. This is one opportunity you cannot afford to miss if you want to place your completed manuscript before a commissioning editor.
WriteFest has been scheduled for Saturday, May 15. Only attendees have the opportunity to discuss their submission with either Jo or Anna.
Reading and assessing submissions will take the editors some time, so we would appreciate writers submitting as early as possible.
Submissions close Monday, March 22.
