I had queried agents before attending the NYC Write to Pitch Conference and looking back on it...my attempts were laughable. Without the knowledge and feedback from Paula I would still be hopelessly querying agents wondering what the hell I was doing. If I do ever get published it will 100% be because I attended this conference. She not only took the time to help dial in each attendees query, she was also filled with knowledge of the entire publishing industry I was completely ignorant of. It was also eye opening to talk about my story out loud, to see other writer's/agent's reactions and feedback, and gameplan moving forward with my manuscript. I highly recommend attending this conference if you are serious about getting published. The experience was invaluable.
