Come out to Philadelphia Small Works Gallery for our first in a series of skillbuilding workshops for artists, Real Talk. April's installment: How to Pitch with poet & essayist Nancy Reddy.
This hands-on workshop will introduce participants to the essentials of pitching personal essays, service journalism, book reviews, interviews, and reported pieces. Nancy will share resources and strategies for finding editors and pitch guides, as well as examples of successful pitches, and we’ll work together to start crafting a pitch of your own. In addition to these practical tips, we’ll also talk about how the process of pitching can help you generate new ideas and develop your sense of the audience for your writing. Whether you’re new to pitching or want a refresher, you’ll leave the workshop with lots of resources and encouragement to start sending your good ideas out into the world.
