Are you a Thriller/Mystery writer and you think you might have the next best thing every publishing house should fight for? Okay, maybe not every publishing house but you get it, right?
We'd love to announce to you the Writers Digest University 2nd Annual Mystery & Thriller Online Writing Conference.
Writer's Digest University is pleased to present an exclusive online event for mystery & thriller writers! On September 10th and 11th, our 2nd Annual Mystery & Thriller Online Writing Conference will provide expert insights from SEVEN award-winning and best-selling authors on the finer points of how to write within the mystery and thriller genres. Spend the weekend learning techniques for honing your craft from seven different published authors, then (if you choose) pitch your novel via query letter to a literary agent specifically looking for material in the mystery or thriller genre. The agent will provide you with a personalized critique of your query - and maybe ask to see more.
Experience the education, camaraderie, and opportunities provided by a live writing conference without ever having to leave your home!
Participating agents include Shannon Powers (McIntosh & Otis, Inc.), Jessica Sinsheimer (Sarah Jane Freymann Literary Agency), Sharon Pelletier (Dystel & Goderich Literary Management), and Jennifer Johnson-Blalock (Liza Dawson Associates Literary Agency).

The month of October brings with all all the chills of the night-no, not the winter kinda chill... the creepy kind of chill- and Wattpad also seems to be getting in the frenzy too with the launch of their latest campaigns;
The Film:
A group of college students venture into the Black Hills Forest in Maryland to uncover the mysteries surrounding the disappearance of James' sister who many believe is connected to the legend of the Blair Witch. At first the group is hopeful, especially when a pair of locals offer to act as guides through the dark and winding woods, but as the endless night wears on, the group is visited by a menacing presence. Slowly, they begin to realize the legend is all too real and more sinister than they could have imagined.
Directed by Rupert Wyatt ("Rise of the Planet of the Apes"), THE EXORCIST is a propulsive psychological thriller following two very different priests tackling one family's case of horrifying demonic possession. FATHER TOMAS ORTEGA (Alfonso Herrera, "Sense8," "The Chosen") is the new face of the Catholic Church: progressive, ambitious and compassionate. He runs a small, but loyal, parish in the suburbs of Chicago. He has no idea that his quiet life is about to change forever. Deep in the slums of Mexico City, another priest has found himself locked in a life and death struggle with evil. FATHER MARCUS KEANE (Ben Daniels, "Flesh and Bone," "House of Cards") is a modern day Templar Knight, an orphan raised since childhood by the Vatican to wage war against its enemies. Father Marcus is everything Father Tomas is not: relentless, abrasive and utterly consumed by his mission - and he constantly butts heads with his adversary within the church, FATHER BENNETT (Kurt Egyiawan, "Beasts of No Nation").
This is going to be badass awesome!!!!!

A host of authors today won't have a complete history without mentioning Wattpad. No joke. The platform has been a very supportive place for emerging writers and it has no doubt created a fine set of writers out there in the publishing world such as NYT Bestselling Author, Natasha Preston*(natashapreston)
* (the Anna Todd reference is getting cliché)
Following the growing number of published authors emerging from Wattpad, a number of Wattpad authors have decided to give back to the community by offering their published books for free(for a limited time of course)
Read4FreeBooks is a profile where "Published Wattpad authors run short term promotions where they let you download their published Amazon books for FREE! There is no limit. Download as many ebooks as you want during their FREE promotion."
