I've been to every Love is Murder conference and have gotten something out of each one, especially the one where I pitched to Janice Strand of Hard Shell Word Factory, and ended up with a contract for Two Wrongs, my debut mystery. That also led to the release of Girl of My Dreams, my romantic comedy at the same publishing house.
Pitching at a conference is one of the best ways to jump over a few hurdles and avoid the slush pile. I highly recommend it. It worked for me!
I hope to see some of you there. If you plan on attending, please leave a comment.
