Writers Weekend: Publishing Horror & Southern Gothic *

This workshop led by Jeremy Billingsley of Sley House Publishing will define horror and the southern gothic and reflect on how these two genres work together.

We will discuss the process of writing and getting beta readers, the importance of research and keeping it in the background, and querying agents. 

This workshop is part of our new annual Writers Weekend series for adults interested in writing and publishing their work, including poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and journalistic writing of all lengths and styles. Join us to sharpen your skills, connect with fellow writers, and take the next step toward publication!
