Unsolicited Press Drop-In Submission Pitch

Elephants Delicatessen on Corbett 5221 SW Corbett Avenue, Portland

Unsolicited Press will hold an informal drop-in submissions period in which local writers can pitch their manuscripts to one of the editors on the team. The pitches should be 1-3 minutes in length and authors should bring with them a query letter to leave with the author (if the author wants to furnish a sample of the work, 10 pages max). Think of it like speed dating for books. Writers can identify the editor by looking for the table with a copy of Who Killed Buster Sparkle?
