How to Pitch and Sell Your Memoir at American Grammar

Join us for the first industry event of this year’s Philadelphia Bookstore Crawl!

We’ll be at American Grammar, chatting memoir, with literary agents Ashley Lopez (Massie McQuilkin & Altman), Anna Sproul-Latimer (Neon Literary), and Eric Smith (Neighborhood Literary), and acclaimed memoirists Jiordan Castle (Disappearing Act) and Farah Naz Rishi (Sorry for the Inconvenience).

As with most of our informative events, it’ll be a short discussion followed by an AMA. Ashley, Anna, and Eric both actively sell memoir in their agent lives. Ask them how! Jiordan and Farah wrote two beautiful books! Ask them how they pitched them.

And of course, be sure to pick up books from our friends at the bookshop, and order lots of coffee.
