You've completed 90% of the hard work of revising and editing your manuscript. Congratulations! Now the last thing you need before submitting it is a letter. Whether you're applying to an MFA program, writers conference, or fellowship or residency, to seek representation on your work, to publish, you need to be able to speak about your writing style and artistic intention in an artist statement, a cover letter, or a statement of purpose. Ploi will share strategies from her years of experience from the jurying side on putting together a cohesive application, with time given for you to draft a paragraph of your artist statement and a Q&A.
