My villain is still a work in progress, but basically, he is a lord a medium-sized town and a baby megalomaniac who starts war with his neighbors at the drop of a hat. He attempted to force my MC and her mother, a mage, to join his army but the mother fought to let MC escape.

Hello,

My name is Natalie. I am working on my MS #5 but right now, it's slow going. My MS#1 has collected an impressive number of rejections, as well as several partial and full requests.

Looking forward to meeting fellow SparkleSkunks and reading your brilliant creations!

I absolutely love the name of our cabin! Go SparkleSkunks!

Thank you, I needed to hear this today!

I'm ready 🏕👀

#revpit #camprevpit #writingcommunity

That’s right! Camp RevPit is back! And it’s open to any and all writers! Sign up starting April 14 and join us!

Continue working on my WIP; continue pitching and querying the completed MS. I found it also pays to look at that MS with fresh eyes every few months and tweak it, especially if you're lucky enough to get feedback from a new reader/critique partner.

Time to ramp up the action! MC will have to get out of their head if things literally smack them in the face!

I'm Gert from Hertfordshire, 17 miles north of London. I have one creaky 19 year old cat and a mad, 11 year old ginger. I have a bionic hip, seven guitars, and I'm part of a Steampunk band called Ghostfire. I love writing, but I'm a born procrastinator and easily distracted.

Wow, that's a lot! If you plan on querying, you probably already know that agents prefer debut books to be under 100k, even fantasy. If you plan on keeping it a standalone, you need to evaluate what to keep and what to cut. Don't delete the cut scenes! Save them in a separate file.

The #revpit sub window opens TOMORROW, so let's take a look at what's ahead.

This year (our 10th!), we have 16 participating editors, which means:

GRAND PRIZE:
16 free developmental edits

RUNNERS-UP PRIZE:
16 free 1-on-1 coaching sessions with Jennifer Conoley of @thececoaches.bsky.social

1/3

How huge is it? And what genre?

🎉TODAY IS THE DAY!🎉

The #RevPit submission window opens at 12 p.m. ET today.

Good luck to all who enter this year! Our editors can't wait to see what you've written!

That was me last year! This time, I looked up the questions and composed my answers ahead of time (they were on the RevPit website, "How to submit"). Well, if you do it again next year, I hope it helps!

What would entice you to read past the first page of a fantasy book? Also, what's your take on portal fantasy: love, hate, neutral?

IT IS ALMOST TIME!!

#RevPit writers, the submission window opens in ONE WEEK, and we are soooo excited to see your stories!

Hello Natasha! So good to see you're participating this year as well! Here's my question: would you be willing to see the same manuscript I submitted last year? I made significant changes to it, based on the excellent feedback from you and several other people (agents and critique partners).

What's your stance on portal fantasies: love, hate, neutral?

A Glossary for Querying Writers — Allison Alexander What do terms like "blurb," "commercial fiction," "MSWL," "high concept," and "upmarket" mean? This article's got you covered.

Publishing has some weird terms. #Writing #Editing #Publishing #Querying

I love your slide! So well-organized and covers everything people need to know about your book!

"I love stories in specific, heavily atmospheric environments like the Arctic, Appalachia, or desert where the setting becomes like a character."
