Ruth will discuss what it's really like to go on submission with a debut (literary fiction) novel. Tea will be spilled about her experience selling her novel this spring, what to expect on calls with book editors, what writers can do to pique editors' interests, and how to stay sane while on sub. Questions will be answered and resources will be shared! The conversation will focus on the part that happens after you've signed with an agent, but the demystification of this shadowy process may be helpful to novelists in all stages.

Ruth Madievsky is the author of a debut novel, ALL-NIGHT PHARMACY (forthcoming from Catapult in 2023) and a poetry collection, EMERGENCY BRAKE (Tavern Books, 2016). Her work appears in Harper's Bazaar, Lit Hub, Guernica, Tin House, Kenyon Review, and elsewhere. When she's not writing, she works as an HIV and primary care clinical pharmacist.
