Pitch Workshop with Brenda Drake, Shelley Watters, & Cassandra Marshall



The workshop is filled. Yay! We'll have details up in a few days on where to send your pitches and when we'll posting them, so come back soon and check for details!



Come join the fun and get your pitch ready for a major pitching event coming in March. My critique buddies and I are critiquing 20 pitches each. Not only that, but you'll get critiques from your fellow writer bloggers! Win!

Here's how it's going down ...

The first 60 entries in the linky below will qualify to submit their 35-word pitch and first 150 words of their Adult, YA, or MG (any genre) manuscript for critiquing. You many only enter once. We'll critique them and post them to our sites for further critiques from your writing friends. We will pull three random door prize winners for the editing certificates from Editor Cassandra. If we don't reach 60 entrants before February 17th, we'll close the linky and split the participants between us. Simple.

Please only enter if you want your entries posted to our sites for critiques. 

Here's your critiquers (click on their names to learn more about them)...


Brenda Drake

Shelley Watters



Cassandra Marshall

What are you waiting for? Sign up now! If the linky doesn't close at 60, we still are only going to 60. All entries after that will be erased.


Mister Linky's Magical Widgets -- Easy-Linky widget will appear right here!
This preview will disappear when the widget is displayed on your site.

Mara Rae said...

I've never entered one of these before so I'm a little nervous, but here goes! Thanks for the opportunity!

This sounds great!

Crystal Licata said...

Thanks for another opportunity Brenda! Your contests and blog hops really help us become better writers :)

This sounds great, thanks!

Charity Bradford said...

Awesome! Does the novel have to be finished? Also, I'll post it in my sidebar to help spread the word.

Will we email them to you? I'll keep watching the blog for details. :) I just try and prepare emails and such as early as possible so I don't forget and throw things together at the last moment.

Huntress said...

love contests and this one looks outstanding.

Brenda Drake said...

The novel does not have to be finished. If you enter the HUGE contest in March, than yes, it will have to be a finished manuscript.

meradeth said...

I believe there needs to be a large "h3ll Yeah!" button for these contests! Love it!

meradeth said...

Hmm, either Mister Linky and I aren't getting along well, or somehow I may have accidentally entered more than once (very sorry!). Still, my name's not showing up in the list like it has before... Is it working?

Angie Ledbetter said...

Fun fun fun!

DL Hammons said...

Brenda Drake said...
