SOWW Literary Series: An Evening in Conversation with Editor Dana Alsamsam
·OnlineOnlineSOWW Literary Conversations: An Evening in Conversation with Dana Alsamsam ✨
Join the Society of Women Writers for a conversation with professional book editor and poet Dana Alsamsam.
In this online moderated conversation, we’ll explore one of the most important questions writers face: When is a manuscript truly ready?
Dana has helped writers refine their prose, strengthen their storytelling, and bring their manuscripts to life. She will share insights from her work as an editor, discuss common challenges writers encounter during the revision process, and offer guidance on how authors can prepare their work for the next stage of its journey. The conversation will be followed by a live audience Q&A.
Whether you are early in your writing process or preparing to submit your manuscript, this session offers a thoughtful look into the editorial perspective behind strong, submission-ready work.
