-Win a registration to the WLT’s 2018 Agents & Editors Conference (June 29-July 1, 2018).
-Meet one-on-one with a top literary agent in your category or genre (in person at our annual conference or via phone call) if you’re one of our ten winners.
-Be recognized during the opening session of the 2018 Agents & Editors Conference and in the printed program (if you’re a winner or a finalist).

You don’t have to live in Texas to enter this contest. It’s open to everyone, everywhere!
