The Writer's Voice
Twitter Pitch
(Twitter hashtag:
#WVTP)
You know how much we love you? Well, we
have the amazingly sexy, talented agent, John M.
Cusick of Scott Treimel NY , and the beautiful, and equally
talented, agent, Vickie
Motter of Andrea
Hurst Literary Management,
throwing a twitter pitch party on the hashtag #WVTP on
May 24 from 12PM until 6PM EDT. Yeah. We love
you that much!
Here's the rules...
Pitch your finished manuscript on the
hashtag. Make
sure your pitch includes the hashtag #WVTP. The agents will be hopping in and out of
the feed during the party hours. John and Vickie will tweet
their requests for the manuscripts that pique their interests.
Simple. Right? Not if they both make a request on the same
pitch, it isn't.
Keeping in the spirit of The
Writer's Voice, if they both request the same pitch, you
must choose one of them and announce it in the feed. (They
promised not to hold any rejections against you.)
And, one more thing, we may have other
agents joining in the twitter pitch frenzy.
So get your Twitter pitches ready, and
make sure to include the hashtag.
And follow the agents
on Twitter...
This is fabulous! Thanks for giving us the opportunity. If we have two finished manuscripts, may be Twitter pitch both?
ReplyDeleteJust one. :) And good luck!
DeleteOkay, SORRY! But I had it wrong. You CAN pitch 2 mss! :D
DeleteGood luck to the entrants!
ReplyDeleteSuper cool. *reaches for pitch polish*
ReplyDeleteThis is so, so cool, Moni! Your blog should be the #1 destination for all things agent-related, in my opinion. :)
ReplyDeleteIs this for everyone, or just the 200 Writers Voice contestants?
ReplyDeleteEveryone!!! :D
DeleteAnd thank you, guys!!! It's lovely to see you around! :D
ReplyDeleteSounds like another great opportunity. Guess I need to become more familiar with using Twitter!
ReplyDeleteYou do that!! :D
DeleteDoes the MSS need to be in a genre that the agents represent? And can you tweet more than one MSS?
ReplyDeleteYes, they need to be in the genre they represent, but this is only if you want Vickie or John to request. (You can go to their websites and see what they are looking for.) BUT looks like other agents are going to be reading the twitter feed, so you can post other genres too. Only 1 ms. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, and I love Lauren, she is on my bucket list.
ReplyDeletewe are going to Boston in August and eat at her hubby's Painted Burro
ReplyDeleteOH! I'm jealous!! I LOVE MEXICAN food! I want to go too! lol.
DeleteAnd yes, I think Lauren is THE BEST. I'm really so happy with her. I ADORE HER!! :D
You're always hosting the most fantastic contests! Best of luck to everyone.
ReplyDeleteVery excited for this!!!
