A year-round conference in the arts.
Symposium features virtual seminars and panels on screenwriting, filmmaking, and publishing, plus free "Town Hall" discussions throughout the year.
Like Pipeline Artists, our approach is to tell creatives what they need to hear, not what they want to hear. Because let’s face it: no one learns when advice is sugarcoated. RealTalk™ and honesty, helping everyone build a path to their own unique career goals.
Upcoming Events
One-on-One with Jane Friedman
Monday, July 29th (Free)
If you have not yet learned about the most prominent, accessible and talented publishing expert there is—the amazing Jane Friedman—you're in for a treat. Pipeline's exec Jeanne Veillette Bowerman will conduct a one-on-one conversation with Jane for a deep dive into publishing, her recent, chaotic A.I. adventures, as well as answer our audience's burning questions at our live event!
Hard Truths: Book Writing Competitions
Tuesday, August 20th (Free)
Understanding how contests actually work and what types of projects typically resonate is essential to any writer looking to compete—the story idea, the quality of the writing sample, the voice of the author, etc. Our Book Pipeline execs Matthew J. Misetich, Ciara Duggan and Jeanne Veillette Bowerman offer insider tips on writing competitions from the perspective of the readers behind them.
