Unicorn Writers’ Conference exclusively offers book manuscript review sessions with agents and editors throughout the day of the conference.
What makes our sessions unique is the advanced review of the first forty pages of your manuscript.
How Manuscript Review Sessions work: You sign up and pay the fee on the Registration Page for the conference and to schedule a session. Then send an email to our Scheduling Coordinator to receive a personalized schedule for your day at the Unicorn Writers’ Conference. Based on availability, we will set up a half-hour meeting with your preference of agent or editor. Our agents’ and editors’ specialties are listed in the genre chart. Match the genre of your work with the appropriate agent and/or editor by using the Genre Chart.
Submit your material to be reviewed to the Coordinator following the details found in the checklist below. Get ready for your meeting(s) with a major agent or editor!
There is no limit to the number of sessions you may schedule, but sign up soon because these times are limited.
DEADLINE for all materials is August 1,2018
