A Premier Partnership

by Holly Smith

One of our great honors at the Washington Independent Review of Books is that each year we get to partner with — and enjoy the festivities at — the Gaithersburg Book Festival! Even though the event is virtual again this May, the lineup of authors and offerings is no less impressive.

Well, the same goes for our annual Washington Writers Conference! While covid-19 derailed us in 2020, it couldn’t keep us down for long! We’re back this month with a streamlined, all-virtual conference that doesn’t only celebrate books; it may help you get published!

Register now, and along with gaining access to several pro panels on navigating the publishing world, you’ll also get three one-on-one (via Zoom) pitch sessions with literary agents! But hurry: The last day to register is Saturday, April 10th.

The Washington Writers Conference happens April 27 & 29 and May 4 & 6; agent-pitch sessions run May 14-15. Click here to register!
