Agent Pitch Contest
Bree Ogden (with Martin Literary Management) is stopping by on Monday. I've asked her some questions and she has also agreed to judge a query pitch contest. (so nice right?)
Rules:
- You must be a follower of my blog (sorry but this is for those who visit me more than once :) I'd love to meet you if you are just stopping by)
- You must follower her blog too. (which is really just a bonus reference for you! :)
- You can only enter one pitch - be sure it is something she is looking for.
- Your pitch can only be 1-3 sentences long. (not long run on sentences!)
After dying in a car accident and witnessing her own funeral, Gabby becomes a 14 year old Bright-in-Training (BIT) and Transfers up to Cirrus, where SkyFones, SkyPods, and InnerNets are all the rage. As if her death isn’t bad enough, Gabby is assigned to protect her school rival, Angela Black, who is now dating her lifetime crush, Michael. As Gabby moves through her Bright Training, instead of protecting Angela as pledged, Gabby illegally sabotages her and learns what happens when you hate someone to death.
Prizes:
- 1st place winner can submit the entire manuscript
- 2nd place winner can submit a partial (first 3 chapters)
- 3rd place winner will get a query critique
And be sure to work on your pitches over the weekend!

Pictorial Representation of my time at BEA!

literary agent and genius at Nancy Coffey. She's just as nice and cute in person as online. Query her! She rocks! You can follow her on Twitter for scoop!

I'm alive!!!
I had the best time at BEA. Books books books! That's all it is for 3 days!
I shipped home 100 lbs of books! Yes I did! And most of them are for you! (Hate to admit it but I'm keeping some for myself!! Hey I didn't almost die twice for nothin'! :).
A little bit about BEA - its like playing the Hunger Games only in a bookstore instead of an outside arena. And Books are a hotter commodity than any food or weapons. In fact, books ARE your weapons! I'm not kidding when I saw I almost died twice - either by being trampled or killed with a new Hardback.
The slogan of the week with Jen Hayley and Shana Silver: "If we lose you, you are on your own!" ;) If you dont believe me, check this out!
