HWG Conference Carly Watters

I’m thrilled to be attending the Las Vegas Writer’s Conference this year. I’ll be hosting two workshops that have been successful in the past: “Self Editing for Fiction Writers” and “Mastering Writing Multiple POV.” Self Editing will be more of a lecture style, and Mastering Writing Multiple POV will be more of a hands on session. Come ready to learn and ask questions!

At the conference:

During the pitch sessions I will be looking for: women’s fiction and upmarket fiction in the tradition of Meg Mitchell Moore, Liane Moriarty, Nichole Bernier, Taylor Jenkins Reid, and Elin Hilderbrand; YA in the tradition of Dangerous Girls, and How To Love; and literary thrillers like Gone Girl, The Silent Wife, and Night Film. I will be open to select non fiction projects that have demonstrable expertise and a quantifiable market.

 I’m looking forward to seeing what the writers of Las Vegas will bring.
