The additional fee for three one on-one critiques (of a single manuscript) is $50 and is available until May 19, 2021. None of the critiques are available WITHOUT registering for the conference.
Extended critiques are $125 and can only be obtained by also registering for the conference and the three 15-minute critiques.
Registrants can only sign up for one set of short critiques and one extended critique. If you pay a second registration fee, we are happy to accommodate your request for additional critiques, but only for the short critiques and for a manuscript in a different genre. We do not allow a second extended critique. There are only twenty extended manuscript critiques available.
Not ALL of the guest faculty provide critiques.
Teen Writer
If you are a parent or responsible adult, you can register for BOTH yourself and your teen writer! Critiques for each participant MUST be paid for separately. Parent + teen writer fee: $500.00. Register the parent first, and then register the teen.
