A five part blog about pitches
May. 6th, 2008 12:08 amI just received email from someone asking, among other things, how to write a good pitch.
As long-time readers of this LJ are no doubt well aware, this is an area of expertise in which I am sadly lacking. However, Agent Kristin (and no, I don't actually know who she is) has posted a 5 part series about how to build a pitch -- based in part on back cover blurbs and in part on a workshop she's given a number of times.
It's all good. I think it's probably all good for those of us who are already agented and published, but who, like me, are not really very good at the short, sharp pitch. You can find the articles here.
