Writing West Midlands: Pitch Your Work with Olivia Chapman
Thu 25 Mar 2021 to Thu 25 Mar 2021
This 2-hour online workshop will teach you in a practical way how to talk about your work, and pitch it to agents / editors / commissioning editors / producers – whatever is relevant to your art form. Your tutor will be Olivia Chapman from Writing West Midlands.
You’ll learn how to structure your pitch, talk confidently and clearly about your plot and genre, and practise your pitch.
This workshop is intended for prose writers (both fiction and non-fiction) and scriptwriters. The content can be adapted for poetry but works best if your poetry collection is themed or can be pulled together to talk about in broader terms than individual poems.
In order to participate fully, you will need to have a complete story / poetry collection (in whatever form) which you can talk about from start to finish. You will learn skills you can transfer to any other story, but to get the most out of the workshop, it will be helpful to just focus on one you can finesse.
Although you do not need to be published to attend, you do need to have a complete manuscript to be able to base your pitch on.
Olivia Chapman is the PR & Communications Manager for Writing West Midlands, and has been pitching books and scripts as well as events and festivals since she started working in publishing in 2005.
