Starting Tuesday, April 11, join our Three-Day Workshop: Think Like An Editor to learn, through classes, workshopping, Q&A and a live panel to be your own best editor–and focus on changing the elements of your work that can get you published, rejected, or an R&R.

The world is a lot right now--politically and otherwise. Here at the Manuscript Academy, we started thinking about what it means to be a good literary citizen in a time of book bans–and what you can do both for you and for the writers who come after you.
We’re pleased to welcome Tonya Todd to the podcast. She is a Las Vegas-based writer and actress who will be teaching Crafting Diverse Characters for Inclusive Literature at the Atlanta Writers Conference in May.
Tonya has short stories in Vegas Writes: Love in the Dunes, Tales from the Silver State IV, and Authors Portraits LV. Her non-fiction is featured in NPR's Desert Companion.
