Please welcome Matt Samuel to the #CYASuccess family.

“When I signed up for the 2021 CYA conference, I was very excited about the opportunity to get some direct feedback, with their Editor Assessment sessions. I had never done any pitches or face to face with editors or publishers before, so I was more than a bit nervous.

I received some great feedback from a couple of editors. And one of these editors was Rowena Beresford of Yellow Brick Books (now Riveted Press). Rowena and I only had 15 minutes to discuss 2 manuscripts. But in that time, she suggested a few things to help improve one story and she invited me to submit that story to her once I had made the changes. I took her feedback on board and submitted within the week. Then a few weeks later I was offered a contract.
 
Without CYA, I would never have had the chance to meet Rowena. Which means without CYA, I wouldn’t have a book being published!”

We're thrilled to have Rowena back with us at #CYA2024.
