The Submission Process - New Contrast

Join Robyn Paterson and Shane van der Hoven from the New Contrast team for a session that highlights some common errors they have noticed come up regularly when reviewing submissions. This interactive workshop focuses specifically on the submission process providing writers with tools and practical knowledge that will help give them the best chance at getting published. You will leave the session with clear knowledge of how to understand and read a submission call, what kind of writing editors are looking for, the difference between a draft and final submission piece, structuring a submission and what information to include/not include, submission no-nos and etiquette, and crafting a compelling cover letter and bio.
