Upcoming Twitter Pitch Parties!!

12/5/2015

 
Twitter Pitch Parties are for writers to tweet a 140-character pitch for their completed and polished manuscript(s) directly to publishers OR agents. If your 140-character pitch is favorited by a publisher OR agent, you may submit your manuscript by following their submission guidelines.

How can I participate?
All you need is to jump onto Twitter the days of a Party and post your pitch! When writing your 140-character pitch, make sure to leave enough room to include #Party Hashtag, #Age and #Genre in the tweet.

How do I know if a publisher OR agent is interested in my manuscript?
Publishers and agents will favorite your tweet if they wish to see more. If you receive a favorite (heart), follow their submission directions on their website or look for them on the hosting website.
