I am interested in submitting my first chapter of my Science/fiction/fantasy novel but I noticed that the workshop is on June 26th. This could be a problem because it is the same weekend as the Writers League?State Convention. I have an appointment that morning in Austin with a literary agent. Can I still submit my work even though I won't be able to make the workshop? Thanks, Robert Pietzsch (Peach).
