Picture is of text. It is titled "The anatomy of a pitch" Elements: Inciting incident, protagonist, goal/stakes, antagonist/problem, setting. Example: The Wizard of Oz After losing her home in a tornado / a young girl / wakes up in a magical land. / Can she find her way back to Kansas / when a witch is determined to kill her?

Hey #RevPitWaiting friends!
Reducing a massive manuscript down to one or two sentences is not easy!
I want to share with y'all a cheat-sheet I saw from #BluePit that was INCREDIBLY helpful to me.

The anatomy of a pitch:

No interest from agents during #BluePit but that’s okay. It was a good learning experience as my first pitch event ever. Hopefully I will have some luck during #SmallPitch 🤞🏻

#BluePit was so much fun! There are so many talented people out there dreaming big dreams. It’s a privilege to be among you! ❤️

Screenshot of the epigraph from Keys to the Realm (Heir to the Throne #3) “Below the thunders of the upper deep, Far far beneath in the abysmal sea, His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee About his shadowy sides: above him swell Huge sponges of millennial growth and height; And far away into the sickly light, From many a wondrous grot and secret cell Unnumbered and enormous polypi Winnow with giant fins the slumbering green. There hath he lain for ages and will lie Battering upon huge seaworms in his sleep, Until the latter fire shall heat the deep; Then once by men and angels to be seen, In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.” -Alfred Tennyson, The Kraken

after staying up late last night for #BluePit, tonight I’m gonna chill with my book (was talking about my sea folk earlier and started missing that world and my characters😉) #LoveMyBook

It was my first time doing something like #BluePit
I had a lot of fun with it! Thank you to everyone who reposted and liked my posts talking about Making Utopia!
It really was a major confidence booster!
Love you all

First day after all that #bluepit and #bluepithype is the hardest. How do you handle the crash?

The likes and reposts were amazing. A few nice comments added to the encouraging atmosphere of #Bluepit. No agent replies. Standard expectations for #amquerying #Writers.

Thanks everyone

Wait what? #BluePit has barely finished and next week they're hosting #SmallPitch ?

Do you people ever sleep?

Anyway, FYI, everybody...🧐

This was my very first #BluePit and I had a lot of fun! This app is still kind of a mystery to me (I was never really a Twitter person) but it was so cool to meet so many other indie authors and start building that community!

graphic saying Help Requested Re: Self Publishing

Hi #WritingCommunity, I'm ready to dive into the world of self publishing!

What tips, leads, accounts, videos do y'all recommend?

I'd prefer not to rely on Amazon/have small budget

Thanks @sagetgreene.bsky.social for starting me off!
#Bluepit #writesky #selfpublishing #WIPsnips #publishingjourney

It was really delightful being in the #BluePit spectator's box yesterday. Some really fun projects hitting the query trenches!

As a fresh face round these #WriteSky parts, what other happenings should I have on my radar?

#WritingCommunity

Missed #bluepit yesterday bc the stomach bug is wreaking havoc in my house. But, I hope everyone had a great experience! @bluepit.bsky.social

Had so much fun during #bluepit yesterday! Thank you for everyone's support!
