Pitchapolooza

Posted by pittsburgh writers group on October 16, 2010 at 11:08 AM
EVENT: THE ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO GETTING YOUR BOOK PUBLISHED: HOW TO WRITE IT, SELL IT, AND MARKET IT...SUCCESSFULLY! -- PITCHAPALOOZA DATE: Saturday, November 6, 2010 TIME: 2:00pm Eastern LOCATION: Joseph-Beth Pittsburgh, 510 S 27th St., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15203 - PH: (412) 381-3600 EVENT DESCRIPTION: The PITCHAPALOOZA concept is like ?American Idol? for books, and it works like this: Anyone with an idea for a book has the chance to pitch it to a panel of judges consisting of the authors plus guest industry insiders and/or local authors. Each "contestant" gets only one minute. The judges critique everything from idea to style to marketplace potential and much more. Authors come away with concrete advice on how to improve their pitch, as well as a greater understanding of the ins and outs of the publishing industry. At the end of each Pitchapalooza, the judges come together to pick a winner. The winner receives a half hour consultation with Eckstut and Sterry.
