* July 19: SSA Forum: “Fast Pitch Pointers”

Four Points Sheraton (SE Corner of Speedway and Campbell)
Time: 11:30 – 2:00 PM
$25 [includes luncheon buffet]

      Join SSA for “Fast Pitch Pointers” on Sunday, July 19.   With the Wrangling
With Writing Conference just around the corner in September, those personal
appointments with an agent, editor, publisher or producer look mighty
tempting.   But maybe you’re nervous about how to effectively present your
ideas and manuscripts; afraid you’ll say too little–or too much?   Don’t
worry, be snappy!   Our panel of pitching pros–including multiple-agented,
oft-published Carol Costa–will help you perfect your delivery with a
pitching clinic of information you’ll practice on your table mates.

Call 546-9382 or email forums@ssa-az.org by Wednesday, July 15th.
