Tele-connections gives Professional ASJA Members another way to make new connections with people who value the work professional writers do.

Tele-connections lets Professional ASJA Members meet one-on-one with editors, content managers, literary agents, publishers and others in need of your writing skills. You may find your next best client -- or someone seeking their next best client may find YOU. Hence, Teleconnections.

The 9-minute meetings are determined via a lottery system. There is no guarantee that any of your picks will result in an appointment.

Once Tele-connections is open for members, please use the registration form to make your selections. Enter your email and login, then click on the Tele-connections tab on the top left and follow instructions to select and rank your editor/agent choices. You may review or change your selections (until signup ends on May 7, 2021 9:00 p.m. Eastern)

You can enter a minimum of 1 choice, maximum of 12, for a total of 12 possible appointments. Please take care while making your selections that your skills and experience match what the client has specified and that you request appointments only with people you are genuinely interested in meeting.

There is NO advantage to signing up early. All selections made during this sign-up period have an equal chance for an appointment. And there are no guarantees; remember, this is a lottery. Please also know that especially in this uncertain, COVID-19 era, editors may show up late or not show up at all. We have no control over this, but should it occur, we'll make best effort to reschedule your meeting on another day. Please remember: Tele-Connections appointments are business meetings. Your appointments take priority over other activity at the time. Make your selections with this in mind.
