Last Sunday I announced that Dianne Ochiltree would critique the four first pages for us. Dianne will do the first pages for January. It is my pleasure to let you know that EDITOR, HEATHER ALEXANDER from DIAL has agreed to critique three first pages.
Please attach your double spaced, 12 point font, 23 line first age to an e-mail and send it to kathy(dot)temean(at)gmail(dot)com. Also cut and paste it into the body of the e-mail. Put “December 20th First Page Prompt” in the subject line.
Give it a try. The worse thing that could happen is you throw it away. But who knows, it might be the start of something big.
ILLUSTRATORS: Here is your opportunity to get noticed. Each month I will post a word prompt that you can use to inspire an illustration. I will feature your illustration. If you are interested, then the word prompt for is “Celebrate.”
Please send a 500 pixel wide .jpg by December 27th to kathy(dot)temean(at)gmail.com. Hope the illustrators will jump aboard and send something in for posting on December 31st. Would be a wonderful way to end this year and welcome in the new.
Talk tomorrow,
Kathy
