I offer this challenge to my followers. Some of you are writers, I know. This is an opportunity to find an agent for your previously unrecognized work of literary art.
In October there comes a contest called ‘Trick or Treat with Agents,’ which is hosted by Kimberly Chase, Brenda Drake, and Dannie Morin.
You should try this, whether you officially enter the contest or not. I know I will.
The official announcement is posted below, but here are the instructions if you don’t want to read that image:
Send an e-mail using the following format:
To: trickortreatwithanagent@gmail.com
Subject: genre-sub genre-title
Body of e-mail: Your name:
Three (3) sentence pitch (no run-ons)
Answer to question 1 – In your MCs voice, what costumed character do you relate to most and why?
Answer to question 2 – As an author, what makes your manuscript a tasty treat (unique / marketable)
First 250 words of your story
This may be the motivation I need to finally finish the revisions on my book. Who knows, maybe I’ll get a request.
How about you?
