Not sure if this is where this question should go, so correct me if I'm wrong.
Anyhoo: I was planning on attending a free event in Chico on the 22 of October called "Skip the Pitch: Pitching the Agent Writing Loft Style" that bills itself as a chance for authors and aspiring authors to meet with five industry professionals to talk in small groups about pitching books to an agent. I was really looking forward to it, but now it turns out a friend's wedding is the same day and time.
I wanted to ask, how common is this type of event? Does anyone know of anything comparable on a different day in the CA central valley or bay area? Free or cheap would be good, I am very poor right at the moment.
