For this event, we will be accepting your 35-word pitch submissions VIA EMAIL ONLY. Submission window will be open from Sunday 12/15/13 at 9:00amPST until Monday 12/16/13 at 6:00pmPST.

BLOG PITCH PARTY
{35 Words or Less}
{35 Words or Less}
The TOP 75 pitches--(that's 25 more than our July event!)--will go live on the PitchMAS blog at MIDNIGHT on Thursday, 12/19/13. Agents and editors will have the entire day (as well as all day Friday!) to comment and make requests.
Please do NOT comment if you are not an agent or editor. THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE is if an agent/editor has asked a SPECIFIC question. Any other non-agent/editor responses or comments will be deleted.
FRIDAY 12/20/13
TWITTER PITCH PARTY
{140 Characters or Less}
TWITTER PITCH PARTY
{140 Characters or Less}
All day long on Friday, 12/20/13, we will have our PitchMAS Twitter Party! Agents and editors will follow the hashtag #PitchMAS, reading your awesome pitches. ANYONE can participate, even if you didn't make it into the 75 selected blog pitches. However, your manuscript MUST BE COMPLETED and POLISHED.
Twitter pitches MUST BE 140 Characters or Less and HAVE TO include the hashtag. Don't make the agents and editors work by breaking your pitch into more than one tweet. That will just annoy them and your fellow pitchers.
Please keep your Twitter pitching to no more than TWO PER HOUR. Do not fill up the feed with your pitch over and over again. This too will annoy the agents and editors involved, as well as ruining it for everyone else and people WILL remember you for it.
Follow along with the hashtag: #PitchMAS
Participating agents and editors will be announced soon!
In the meantime, make sure you follow all of our blogs, and following us on Twitter probably wouldn't hurt either. (We often post the same #PitchMAS related info, but you never know when only one of us will tweet something important.)

Thank you for doing this. This is so cool.
ReplyDeleteCan we send pitches for several novels or just one?
Thanks
Hi Sussu,
DeleteAs long as each manuscript is completed and polished, you may pitch as many as you'd like! They MUST be in separate emails though. Same goes for Twitter pitching: each pitch must be in ONE separate tweet, and you can pitch no more than two times per hour, per manuscript.
Good luck!
Thank you so much! What's the email addy?
ReplyDeleteHey Wendy!
DeleteWe will post the email address for submissions on Friday!
Good luck!
So, is the pitch on blog, or twitter, or both? Sorry for confusion. I'm new to this.
