Inaugural Writer's Launch Pad Saturday March 20, 2010
Go from slush to plush
The Writers Launch Pad is focused on helping writers bring their work to market, and launching their careers.
Novel writing may not seem like a quieter life than those lead by our heroes and heroines - at least until it comes time to get it into print. Tuscon-based thriller writer Graham Brown is winging in to tell how he navigated the jungle of agents and publishers to go from an unknown author to a multi-book contract.
Madelyn Cain has written three non-fiction books, the most recent being 2009's Laffit: Anatomy of a Winner. But she didn't write the book until she sold it. Selling a work of non-fiction is as much an art as writing the book itself. And Cain is a master of the non-fiction book proposal - so much so that she teaches the subject in USC's Master of Professional Writing program. Come learn what it takes to impress agents and publishers before your book is even finished.
