Are you writing a novel?
Are you looking for a literary agent to represent you?
Pitching your novel to a literary agent can be terrifying.
But it doesn't have to be...
You just need to be well-prepared and have a professional query letter to read aloud.
Our Pitch Party on 4/28 at 11 AM ET will be effective and fun!
STEP ONE: Write a professional query letter.
If you need help to write your query letter, we have a class for that.
You'll practice reading your query letter aloud so that, on the day, the words flow easily.
This way, you'll be thrilled with yourself for your performance and also with the laser-focused feedback you'll get.
STEP TWO: Sign up to read your query letter aloud on 4/28 to a top NYC literary agent and get instant feedback.
Scroll down to sign up below if you already know you want to pitch - only 8 5 spots available!
You can use this Pitch Party in two ways:
1. To crystallize your novel idea and find out A) what you really want to say and B) the most powerful, sellable way to say it.
OR
2. You can read your query letter for your finished novel aloud and, from the live feedback, you can tweak your book (if appropriate) so it's better positioned to sell.
You'll learn how the book market works.
You'll learn if your concept is likely to sell.
If an agent doesn't think it will sell, even if they love your story, they won't offer to represent it.
They can't.
They make their living from selling books and if yours isn't likely to sell, they can't spend time on it.
At this Pitch Party, however, a top NYC literary agent is going to share their best market information and advice with you.
She cares about helping newer writers.
She loves to teach.
She's kind but she 'shoots from the hip' - so you'll know you're getting top-level advice from a seasoned professional who sells at the highest levels of publishing.
If you sign up for the novel pitch, you will also receive the recording of the non-fiction pitches.
You'll have lifetime access to these recordings.
So you'll always have access to a trusted guide who reveals the secrets of how the manuscripts we slave over become published books.
Are you ready to discover the EXCITEMENT of pitching your novel or novel idea and getting live feedback?
