Pitmad

So Pitmad was Tuesday.

I happily annoyed my Twitter followers all day by tweeting my pitch. If you haven't heard of Pitmad go look it up. The hashtag is simply #pitmad . I met a lot of new writer friends, cheered on old ones, and saw a bunch of pitches that made me want to read people's MSs. It was a ton of nervous fun!

I ended the day with new friends and a couple favorites (meaning an agent/pub is interested seeing more), so I count it as a successful day for me.

 

 

And if you're sad you miss it...

 

 

Fear not, there's another #Pitmad in September and I think there's a #Pitchmas in July, so polish those MSs & Pitches and have some fun!

 

Did any of you participate? What did you think of it?

 

 

New WIP Vibe

Recently, I started a shiny new baby wip and I thought I'd post some pictures to kind of share the vibe of it. These are just random photos I found on the interwebs, but I liked the feel of them. :)

Ta-da:

Have any of you ever searched the internet for pictures to inspire your writing?

CP Love

Today I want to gush on critique partners. A good critique partner is GOLD. For a while, I bounced ideas off my twin sister ( check her out here ) and I still annoy her with repeated phone calls and texts, but when she signed with her agent and in the same month found out she was pregnant, her time became precious.

Enter CPseek. I'd seen people on twitter mentioning this site, so I went there in search of a crit partner. It took a couple tries until I found someone I mesh with well and that's so important because you'll be spending a lot of time on each other's MS (and hopefully future projects). I highly recommend checking out CPseek. I found one of my wonderful CPs there.

Now, I leave you with this because CPs are awesome and so it A Very Potter Muscial.

You guys,
   I saw this over on Title2Come and it's perfect. This is exactly what my husband sees while I'm writing. Hopefully slightly less Gollum-ish looking though.

And if you haven't checked out Title2Come, do it. Hilarious.

Current Read

So, I thought I'd give this blog thing a try. I have to be honest. I don't know what I'm doing.

But, here's what I'm reading at the moment. I absolutely love Jennifer Armentrout's Covenant series, so I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book!
