SUMMARY:How to Pitch Electric Lit
DESCRIPTION:For freelancers\, writing an essay\, feature\, or opinion piece doesn’t start when you type the first line. It starts with the pitch. Having a topic and a talent isn’t enough; you also have to be able to package your idea in a way that catches an editor’s eye. But how do you get started writing a pitch? How long is too long—and how short is too short? What does a good pitch look like—and a bad one? And why does Electric Lit ask people to write a pitch\, anyway? Electric Literature editor-in-chief Jess Zimmerman and contributing editor Jennifer Baker fill you in on everything you need to know when proposing nonfiction work to Electric Lit and other publications. Q&A to follow. Presented by Reedsy.

SUMMARY:Eliot Weinberger and Forrest Gander: A celebration of Angels & Saints
DESCRIPTION:Eliot Weinberger\, called “one of the world’s greatest essayists” by the New York Times\, is joined in conversation by Pulitzer Prize winner Forrest Gander to celebrate the publication of Angels and Saints (New Directions). \nThis is a free event\, though we encourage you to pay what you can or to order the book from us to support the bookstore during these challenging times. \nREGISTER HERE \nAbout Angels and Saints\nAngels have soared through Western culture and consciousness from Biblical to contemporary times. But what do we really know about these celestial beings? Where do they come from\, what are they made of\, how do they communicate and perceive? The celebrated essayist Eliot Weinberger has mined and deconstructed\, resurrected and distilled centuries of theology into an awe-inspiring exploration of the heavenly host. \nFrom a litany of angelic voices\, Weinberger’s lyrical meditation then turns to the earthly counterparts\, the saints\, their lives retold in a series of vibrant and playful capsule biographies\, followed by a glimpse of the afterlife. \nAbout the participants\nELIOT WEINBERGER “one of the world’s greatest essayists” (The New York Times)\, has been publishing books with New Directions since 1975\, most recently The Ghosts of Birds. \nFORREST GANDER\, born in the Mojave Desert\, lives in California. A translator and writer with degrees in geology and literature\, he’s the recipient of numerous awards\, among them the Pulitzer Prize\, the Best Translated Book Award\, and fellowships from the Library of Congress\, the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation\, and United States Artists.
