Twelfth Planet Press will be accepting pitches at the Romance Writers of Australia conference Riding the Waves in August in Fremantle.

RWA’s mission is to promote excellence in romantic fiction, to help aspiring writers become published and published authors to maintain and establish their careers, and to provide continuing support for romance writers – whatever their genre – within the romance publishing industry.

One of the ways it achieves this mission is through the annual conference and the opportunity for its delegates to pitch to an editor or agent.

For information on the pitch sessions, how to register and lots of information to help you prepare for your pitch, check out the Riding the Waves website.
