After The Madness Twitter Pitch Party!
We're hosting a Twitter Pitch Party on Thursday, September 13 from 8AM to 8PM EDT on the hashtag #PitMad.
How do you twitter pitch? You tweet your twitter pitch each time you see an agent on the hashtag. The agents will request the tweets in the feed that catch their attention. Make sure to include the hashtag in your pitch and don't @ the agents. By using the hashtag, the agents will see your pitch.
You can tweet as many times as it takes or as many different tweets and manuscripts you wish! It's that simple. Game on!

ReplyDeleteHi, sorry - crazy day. ;) brenleedrake(at)gmail(dot)com
DeleteHey Brenda,
ReplyDeleteUmmm...I feel like a dumbass, but I'm over on Twitter (for one of the first times) and I have no idea how it works. haha. I know, I'm the last person in the universe who isn't tweeting. I put my pitch up cause a bunch of other people had theirs up, but I have no idea how I'd know if an agent favored me. HELP!
You'll get a notice in your feed that someone favorited your tweet much like you get a notice that your tweet has been retweeted.
DeleteP.S. Do I just put the pitch up once, or do I keep putting it up like every hour or something?
ReplyDeletePut it up as many times as you see an agent on - so frequently during the party.
DeleteThanks!!
ReplyDeleteI've just jumped onto #PitMad but have a concern...my novel is for adults, not YA...is that all right?
ReplyDeleteEmily, yes. Agents looking for YA will be stalking the hashtag. Just try to fit "YA" into your 140 characters.
DeleteLOL mine isn't YA, my concern was that YA was all the agents were looking for. But thank you!

ReplyDeleteI did not know how to find out either if my pitch was favorited, but I saw this in the #PitMad feed and followed the simple directions to change settings. Then you will get an email if someone favorited your pitch. Good luck.
