WORKSHOP: HOW TO GET PUBLISHED with Dr. Kate Gale and Tobi Harper

WHAT

You're a writer. You've written imaginative stories, poems, a novel, a collection of essays, pages and pages... Now you want your work to get out into the world, and we are going to teach you, step-by-step, how to become a published author. Join us to learn how to prepare your work for publication, how to publish short work, and then how to move up to longer publications. Learn how to be a literary citizen and become part of the greater literary community while developing your own.
