The Gotham Writers Conference will take place on Zoom, October 14-16, 2022.

It will unfold like this:

Panels and Presentations (Days 1 and 2) — Take a peek behind the publishing curtain with eye-opening and entertaining panels and presentations, split into two tracks happening simultaneously. You can see the full breakdown on the conference schedule. These days are for people who are ready for publication or just gearing up to enter the publishing process.

Pitching Roundtables (Day 3) — Each roundtable will have two agents and a group of pre-selected writers with book projects. You spend the day with your "table"—pitching, reading pages, and discussing your work. There will be tables specializing in: mainstream/literary novels, genre novels, middle grade/young adult novels, picture books, graphic novels/graphic memoirs, nonfiction books.

Anyone can attend the Panels and Presentations, but you must apply and be selected to participate in the Pitching Roundtables.
