Get an industry professional's read on your pages. Submit up to 3,000 words ahead of time, and your chosen agent or editor will come to the session having read them and ready to talk. First draft or fifteenth — outside eyes help at every stage.

What's included

  • Up to 3,000 words read in advance by the agent or editor you select

  • A 15-minute conversation about what's working and what isn't

  • Any section qualifies — including a query letter, if the total stays under 3,000 words. First chapters are recommended.

  • If you're submitting from the middle of the book, include a short note of context so your reader isn't guessing

FAQ

How do I choose my agent or editor?
You will receive an email with the opportunity to select your agent or editor as soon as our lineup is confirmed. Selection order will be done in the order of purchase, so you get first choice if you buy early. 

When do I submit my materials?
You'll receive submission instructions by email after purchase.

What if I miss the submission deadline?
Sessions can't be extended or rescheduled for late submissions and are non-refundable at that point.

Can I book more than one?
Yes. Many authors pair an Insider Chat with a Manuscript Consultation, or pitch to more than one agent. Pitch Sessions are discounted after the first: $79, then $59 each for up to two more.

Is a StoryCon ticket required?
Yes. You must be a ticketed StoryCon attendee to attend any Agent/Editor meeting.
