Pitch Practice Workshop | The Manuscript Academy

$99.00

Join us for TWO masterclasses on pitching–and the chance to try it out in your very own 1:1 agent pitch practice meeting.

The goal isn’t perfection–it’s growth. This is build for introverts who are worried about conference season. You’ll leave confident, courages, and knowing more about how to talk about your work in a way that feels like a lightbulb moment for an agent.

At this event, you don’t have to be perfect to get a yes. 

While we can in no way guarantee an agent or editor request, we can tell you that practice makes perfect–and this is a great place to practice.

Your ticket comes with: 

  • Masterclass with John Cusick, VP of Folio Literary, on verbal pitching
  • Masterclass with Fiona Kenshole, Transatlantic Literary, on how to show an agent that they need to read your work, to read it now–and that you’re the only one who could write it
  • One 1:1 Pitch Practice meeting with the faculty agent or editor of your choice (first come, first served)

You may purchase additional 1:1 meetings at $29 each after registration. Please note that all meetings for our Saturday, April 25, 2026 event must be booked by 11:59pm ET on Friday, April 24, 2026.

Please note that we can’t guarantee a yes from this event–that will be based on whether your project is a good fit for your faculty member (in their sole good faith judgement). That said, you will NOT be rejected because your pitch isn’t smooth. Determinations will be based on content, not delivery.

Members can view the classes for free, but meetings are $29 each.

Hope to see you there!
