Every year, I'm a
Writing for Kids and Teens panelist, and on the
Speed-Dating with the Agents & Editors team at the amazing
Push to Publish event, sponsored by
Philadelphia Stories. It's located at Rosemont College, 1400 Montgomery Avenue, in Rosemont, PA. This is a great place to mix informally with writers, social media experts and freelance editors to talk shop. Authors like the fabulous
Gregory Frost and
Beth Kephart make regular appearances, as well as the talented indie author,
Alison DeLuca, and of course, yours truly,
MOI! Oh, and check out
Marie Lamba, an agent with the De Chiara agency who's running an intensive workshop this year.
Do you need advice on your work in progress?
Want a seasoned manuscript advisor to edit your WIP?
Um... that would be me!
So, if you are anywhere near the Philly/Rosemont/Bryn Mawr area on
OCTOBER 12th,
from 9 am to 5 pm join us for this great event.

Untethered Realms. M Pax, and some others are organizing a

One last but very cool thing, it's official,
I'm an MFA thesis advisor! That's right, I am the thesis advisor for all writers taking on YA and NA projects at Rosemont College. Rosemont has an excellent
MFA in Creative Writing program!
Yay, Rosemont, and yay me! I
love working with students and aspiring authors, and this will be an exciting venture.
