2010 CONFERENCE: JULY 22 - 25 SEATTLE AIRPORT HILTON & CONFERENCE CENTER
The first 200 attendees to register will receive ONE of the following additional agent options:
The FIRST 100 people to register have the option of either: one Speed Pitching
session (wherein they pitch to four agents) OR receive two (2) Ten Minute
One-On-One appointments.
If neither option is indicated on a registrant’s form,
he or she will be given two (2) One-On-One appointments.
If an eligible
registrant requests speed pitching and their genre’s block of speed pitching
agents is full, they will instead receive two (2) One-On-One agent appointments.
The following
100 registrants to enter will have the opportunity to obtain two (2) Ten
Minute One-On-One appointments. (This has been expanded from the original limit
of 50 people).
All
other registrants
will be guaranteed one agent appointment as available.
SPEED PITCHING SESSION (Four Agents): Meet with four agents
within a one 10 minute period. You will be given 2 minutes to pitch
with each agent. Please note we will coordinate your Speed Pitching
slot (agent selections included) to best suit your writing genre.
TWO AGENT APPOINTMENTS: Receive two one-on-one 10 minute agent appointments.
PLEASE NOTE:
SPEED
PITCHING ASSIGNMENTS ARE FINAL. This is an unfortunate inflexibility necessary
to make the sessions run smoothly and eliminate scheduling problems for the time-sensitive
events.
All
attendees will have an opportunity to sign up for Speed Pitching at the
conference on a first come, first serve basis.
All
attendees will have the opportunity to change or obtain more One-On-One
appointments on a first come, first serve basis.
Speed
Pitching and One-On-One appointments are separate entities and will not be
treated as interchangeable during the conference.
