Shelley Tanaka, editor at Groundwood Press, and Tanya Trafford, editor at Orca Book Publishing, will be hosting the First Thousand Words Editorial Event as part of the Prairie Horizons 2019 conference in Saskatoon. The event will take place on Saturday May 25, 2019, from 1:00 to 2:30 pm.

Submit the first thousand words of your picture book, chapter book, middle grade or young adult manuscript by May 10. It will be sent to one the two editors. At the conference, your editor will give you personalized feedback on your submission.

Only 14 slots are available, so don't delay if you would like one. Sorry, you cannot choose which editor sees your submission. You will be emailed submission instructions after your registration is received.
