Like bees to honey, writers swarmed the Lilian Vernon Creative Writers House to attend a panel on Exploring the Intersection of Literary and Commercial Fiction held on March 27, 2015.
Cosponsored by the WNBA-NYC and the NYU, Creative Writing Program, both Harriet Shenkman (WNBA-NYC) and Joanna Yas, Reading and Special Programs Manager, (NYU) organized the event.
The panelists shared their honest opinions and offered the audience great advice about the publishing industry.
