SCBWI-LA Writers and Illustrators Day: The Pen and the Palette

<-- Return to event page

Want to know how your opening page lands with industry professionals? This is your chance.

We’ll select a handful of anonymous “first pages” to be read aloud and reviewed live by our panel during the event. As the audience listens in, our experts will dive into the key question: Would you keep reading? Why or why not?

Interested in submitting? Send up to 350 words by Friday, May 22 to [email protected]. You can paste your work directly into the email or attach it as a document, but be sure it’s double-spaced either way.

Use the subject line: “Writers Day First Page.”

Please note: submission does not guarantee selection, but every entry will be considered.
