Meet literary agents and editors. Network with industry professionals.
Through our Advanced Masters ProCritique™ program, you can submit portions of an unfinished fiction, nonfiction, or screenplay in advance of the conference for a read and review by professional editors. This program is
a popular, cost-effective way to receive on-on-one constructive,  professional
feedback on your manuscript to increase your chances for success.
|
 WC2 also offers ProConsultations,
which are an opportunity for authors with completed, polished manuscripts to pitch attending literary
agents, acquisition editors, agency scouts, and publishers in search of new talent. We even offer an informative seminar
with the "agents du jour" to help you prepare for an actual meeting. This is NOT a speed dating program.
Attendees may apply each day at the 1-on-1 ProCritque Desk. Space is limited by the availability schedule of each agent, and the appointment calendar may be full after the first day. Yes, WC2 conference attendees have signed with literary agents and earned publishing deals.
