"The first Business of Pet Writing Conference was an unqualified success for everyone involved. As an editor in his
third full-time decade in the pet field, I am greatly looking forward to participating in the 2010 conference.
I highly encourage every pet author, new and old, to attend and be a part of this breakthrough event."

Get an edge.
New York City is the United States' major book and magazine publishing center. Here, there is an abundance of
resources and tools that can benefit writers of all genres, including animal-interest authors and journalists.
In celebration and support of your interest and talent, The Pet Socialite, Inc. has organized a February Writing Conference
in Manhattan, specifically designed to benefit you as a writer - no matter what your level is!
The animal-interest, niche writing market combined with these shaky economic times has made it increasingly
difficult to sell a book or an article. But invest in yourself by taking advantage of an exciting opportunity
to learn from publishing insiders who can help you sell your work which can ultimately lead to financial and
image-building success.
The Pet Writing Conference can do these things and more. Many writers spend so much time researching and
writing books and articles that they forget the part of the road to success requires networking and marketing
themselves and their product. Paying attention to these elements allows writers to build their brand and
develop a national platform.
This winter at the Hotel Pennsylvania, we are offering seminars, workshops and panel discussions on how
librarians acquire books; the ins and outs of children's book publishing; understanding the book selling
process from the publishing house perspective; and how social media can lead to success. Additionally, you
can meet representatives from notable animal organizations who can help you with research, book and article
ideas by providing you with access to dispensed information (studies, reports, press releases, newsletters,
etc.), contacts and other educational opportunities.
And lastly, meet with book and magazine editors as well as agents in one-on-one sessions. Just like you,
they are looking to establish fruitful business contacts. But, more importantly, do some business.
These are just a few of the reasons why you should come to The Business of Pet Writing Conference at Hotel
Pennsylvania on February 13, 2010.
