Attendees may request an
individual, 5-minute meeting with an agent OR the chance to have a “first page” read aloud and critiqued. Please
indicate your preferences, in order (1,2). Note: participation in either of these is voluntary, and not guaranteed. Assignments
will be given on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you would like a first
