So, you have an idea for a book. Well, what happens next? In this live event with Reedsy's Head of Learning, Tom Bromley, we'll show you how a seasoned author develops an idea into a fleshed-out plan.
We're inviting you to submit a pitch for a book for this event. On the live stream, Tom will run a few through his development process, suggesting ways to hone your characters, conflicts, and plot into a full-length book.

How to submit your pitch
For this event, we're looking for a 1-2 sentence 'hook' that encapsulates your idea's essence. It should introduce your main character, the central conflict, and the stakes of your story — whether it's fiction or a memoir. Your goal is to intrigue the reader and make us want to know more.
For guidance on writing your submission, we suggest you check out our guide to writing a book hook, which includes advice from top Reedsy editors and dozens of examples from successful publications.
Once you're ready, just submit your pitch using this form. We expect there to be a lot of interest, so please only submit once.
