#WSPit How do I pitch a book on social media? Elevator pitch, comps, memes, moodboards, vibes, cover art, original character art Comps: X meets Y (social media pitches often use books, TV, movies, video games, etc.) Moodboards: a collage of pics that evoke a vibe Elevator pitch: MC has to do X to keep Y from happening or else Z bad thing happens Memes: A silly way to pitch your book Trope lists: what tropes are found in your book *No Genarative AI
So how do you pitch a book on social media?
If you're new to this, I'm going to share some of my fave resources for crafting a pitch that will fit (with hashtags) in a post.
I'll also share some examples of different things mentioned on this infographic.
