#SmallPitch is July 7th and 8th this year. Don’t miss out!

They put together an incredible pitch event that doesn’t rely on algorithms, likes, or friend’s lists.

I’m happy to do a pitch critique if you want a second pair of eyes on it. 😊

#WritingCommunity #AuthorSky #Writer #Author #SmallPub

I spent part of the day experimenting with potential author signatures and I think I’ve settled on one. ❤️

Also, feel free to reach out if you want another set of eyes on your pitch before submitting. I'm happy to help. 😊

Authors, perfect your pitches and polish those manuscripts for #SmallPitch!

If you haven't participated before, don't miss out.

This isn't a social media pitch event that depends on algorithms or followers. You submit to a searchable database for the publishers.

#WritingSky #AuthorSky #SmallPub

Only 5 more pages left to edit, but I'm calling it a night. There's no rush, so I'll send off this half of my manuscript to my publisher tomorrow.

Then I'm going to dive back into my TBR pile.❤️

40.3% of participating authors received one or more submission requests from a small publisher through this event. That’s HUGE!
