Pop-Up Submissions, 22nd July

Traditionally the manuscript submission process has been cloaked in mystery. “No writer really understands how their submissions are evaluated,” explains literary agent Peter Cox. “It often takes many weeks for writers to get a response. And a rejection slip explains nothing.” Last year, Litopia made history when it opened up the submissions process to public scrutiny. Every Sunday, Peter reviewed his submission pile on Facebook Live; while the authors themselves watched and even commented in the chat room.
