I think a lot of it is practice but I also think I have a little bit of salesman in me so I just think I know how to work a pitch. I think. #kidlitpit

Taco/CookiePitch grew from a simple idea of posting fake, possibly inappropriate but hilarious #kidlit story ideas in the guise of a Twitter pitch event like #KidLitPit, #PBPitch, and #KidLitGN. It was all for fun in the beginning.

Post to a kids lit pitch that reads “Ok here me out teenage heartthrob Apu Apustaja moves to a new town. But just one problem.... It's haunted. Also there's a cereal killer who doesn't like people and Apu has to catch him because the police are corrupt.” With an image of Pepe the frog attached.
Interesting (🙄) pitch from last week’s #kidlitpit on X:
Bot account that says “Ready to dance into a new relationship Click bio! Join me for some dating fun!”
I did get an editor “like” during the #kidlitpit on X last week. 👍
But I also got a like on my picture book pitch from…
Ricky Rat is a simple country rat who forgot all about his great-great-great cousin's birthday. While pondering what a fancy city rat would like, Ricky stumbles upon an unlikely critter that might be able to help him before the clock runs out. #kidlitpit #PB
It's #KidLitPit over on Twitter but graphic novels are getting so few likes or engagement. I wonder if the market has dried up for them for now, or the content is not appealing for this pitch round...?
Oh my gosh! I got caught up with #kidlitpit and almost forgot to post. Eek! So excited for my critique partners who are getting ❤️.
But you can’t play unless you write! Only 15 minutes.

#kidlitpit over on twitter is trending high and…I want to bring every one of the sweethearts there over to Bluesky. No #kidlitsky ? #writersky
Participating in #kidlitpit over on the other site. So far X is telling me there are 6 replies, but there is actually only one reply. Nice of X to pad my numbers?

It will be interesting to see what happens with #kidlitpit on X this week. Pitch parties are attracting AI bot pitches over there. These were from the last #pbpitch.
#KidLitPit . Anotado. Gracias!!
@kristiechoi.bsky.social You had liked this pitch at #kidlitpit and I wanted to follow up. I met Johanna Castillo last week and she recommended I email you... May I?
Anyone else doing #kidlitpit on the 30th? I'm scheduling my tweets now...
Pitching The Barrett Chronicles (now complete) and The Curse of the Fart Witch (fresh rewrite to get the pacing better).
Hello agents, art directors, and editors, it’s #kidlitartpostcard day! My name is Sarah Nettuno and I am a published illustrator and author seeking representation. This illustration is from a recently finished board book with #ArcadiaPublishing #kidlitart #kidlitpit

I'm excited for #KidLitPit on Thursday - it's such a great place to connect with other writers.
The Fart Witch has had a developmental+line edit, and is ready to go - this stinky gem is going to make someone wealthy enough to retire. (Someone = me :D)
Hi! I'm a twin-mum/scientist writing fun MG stories - nothing too serious. I sometimes buy ideas - like The Fart Witch - from my 8 yo daughters.
WIP: portal & pirates
I write in other genres, but connecting with other KidLit writers today. #KidLitPit #AuthorConnect
