I'm headed off to the Women Action Media Conference in Cambridge today, sponsored by the Center for New Words and the MIT Program in Women's Studies. On Saturday afternoon (2-3pm), I'm heading up a panel--"Writing a Book Proposal that Sells"--with my partner-in-crime Courtney and two amazing editors: Amy Caldwell, Executive Editor at Beacon Press, and Laura Mazer, an editor, journalist, and book consultant who has worked with publishers including Seal Press, Counterpoint Books, Soft Skull Press, Avalon Publishing Group, and Random House. Here's the description:
Activists, advocates, and savvy writers everywhere have the opportunity to frame public debate about the complex forces shaping the lives of women and girls. Writing a “trade” book is one way to enter public debate and reach an audience far outside social justice movement worlds alone. This session brings together published book authors with editors at houses that publish feminist work. Panelists will discuss ways to shape a media career, the importance of finding your right subject, components of a successful book proposal, why marketing is everything, and the role of agents. Participants will learn why it’s essential to think about audience and “platform” and explore ways to use new media to garner visibility for their work well before your book hits the shelves.
If there, come join us!

The WAM conference sounds awesome! New Moon's founder Nancy is going to be there, as well as a former New Moon editor. Wish I could be there, too!
