“The Writer’s Voice” is a multi-blog,
multi-agent contest hosted by Cupid of Cupid’s Literary Connection, Brenda Drake of Brenda Drake Writes, Krista Van Dolzer of Mother. Write. (Repeat.) and Mónica
B.W. of Love YA. We
based the contest on NBC’s singing reality show The Voice, so the four of us
selected projects for our teams based on their queries and first pages and
coached the talented writers who wrote them as they polished their entries.
And TODAY we get to post our team members’ finished entries on our blogs!
Thirteen amazing agents are going to read these queries and first pages, then vote for their favorites this Thursday and Friday, May 23 and 24. Each vote will count as a partial or full request depending on how many votes the entry receives. If an entry receives 1 or 2 votes, those votes will count as partial requests. If an entry receives 3 or more votes, those votes will count as full requests.

Lastly, cheerleading is allowed, but only until
Wednesday! We want to leave the comments free for the agents to vote on
Thursday and Friday. (Also, we will only allow, well, cheerleading and/or
positive feedback. Please don’t critique the entries before the agents vote. On
the flip side, please don’t try to convince the agents that they want to vote
for one of your favorites or, you know, threaten to douse the agents in silly
string if they don’t vote for your critique partner. This is a
silly-string-free site.)
Happy reading!
Happy reading!
