Pay It Forward Query Winners
Okay so I am a sucker because I could not narrow it to 3.
So I have 5 queries that will move on to the next stage.
Once you've been chosen, what step should you take?
Seventeen-year-old Sara's dream of becoming a star ballerina is challenged when she falls for Remington, an old
I made this decision based on the query, the premise, but mostly what I think Alyssa would like. I personally loved all 10 for different reasons.
The winners of the query contest are: (DRUM ROLL!)
Congrads! You win a query critique and move on to the final stage. Please email me ([email protected]) your most updated query and your FIRST THREE chapters. I will read them and choose the winner to pass on to Alyssa. At this stage it comes down to the writing and pacing for me. :)
Just like before, if the other five writers would like some feedback on their query - please feel free to email me and I will share my notes that may or may not help you.
