Ten years in, and we're just getting started.
A decade of genre panels, agent consultations, and writers who actually finish their books. We're celebrating with a full year of events, giveaways, and a few things we've never done before.
Monthly Genre Parties
One genre celebrated every month — a craft class, an agent/editor panel, and a critique-partner forum to keep the momentum going after.
Critique Forum Access
Every party includes a dedicated forum to find your next critique partner and keep the momentum going long after the event ends.

Spend the evening with the people who actually make publishing happen. Jessica and Julie are hosting a night in New York with agents and editors in the room — real conversations, real access. Details coming soon.
