Conference 1. For your first conference, you'll submit new work you've written in/for this class. It must be in a genre other than your third period workshop genre. In general, I'm looking for five (5) poems or a piece of prose (fiction or nonfiction) in the neighborhood of ten (10) pages.
Conference 2. For the second conference, you'll submit finished work in all three genres that you are thinking about sending to literary magazines. I want five to seven poems, an essay, and a story. The prose pieces should be in the neighborhood of ten pages each (within five pages either way) using 12-pt. Times New Roman and standard margins. That's somewhere between 1,500 and 5,000 words for each prose piece. Ballpark.
You can include work from current or past workshops for the final conference. You're trolling for your absolute best work in each genre here. Like, of all time. It's okay to submit work that has won a scholastic award of some kind, but it's not okay to submit work that has been published in any way, shape, or form. Even in Cadence.
Our task will then be to decide what you're going to submit (and where you're going to submit it) for publication.
