Brilliant evening at the Jericho Writers First 500 final! I didn't win but it was so much fun and - my goodness - weren't the other finalists incredible?! I'll just have to go one better next year.

Just heard I've been selected for tonight's final of the Jericho Writers First 500 competition! I'll be reading the first 500 words of my novel to a panel of real live agents! *Breathes into paper bag*

#cheerPit was a helluva lot of fun, even though no industry likes, but lots of support from the #writingCommunity.
Also guess I did not make it as a finalist for #first500 but that’s ok, I’m here in Puerto Rico with my wife where it’s 88 & everyone is shoveling snow back in NY!
Thanks so much. I’ll be there at #First500 @jerichowriters.bsky.social to listen, cheer everyone on, and vote too. I entered the online First500 in 2022 and received a commendation, not shortlisted, but it encouraged me to keep writing - 2 years later at the festival of writing and a win🤩
Choices… do I continue writing book 2 WIP?
Or do I go back and finish my YA WIP I submitted for #First500? Reading those 500 words over and over again really brought me back to those characters.

I've just entered the @jerichowriters.bsky.social #First500 competition for a chance to win a one-to-one with an agent, a full MS assessment and a lifetime Jericho Writers Membership. Wish me, or rather, The Death and Life of Amelia Borgiotti, luck (and, of course, the others that submit!)
