But there is no restriction - the pitch is for a MG book that's it. If you are still writing it, and if she wants to read it, just tell her it is WIP. :) It's not necessarily an exercise in pitch-writing. <br /><br />Anne will explain why she chose the winning pitch and we will publish that on the W&P. More like "what caught her attention, is it the hook or the theme or was it well written?" than "how to write a pitch". <br /><br />Chitra Soundarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459683357077199646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1222814162697318696.post-6288287276743460152013-04-23T10:39:05.712+01:002013-04-23T10:39:05.712+01:00A couple of questions, Chitra: are these to be pit...A couple of questions, Chitra: are these to be pitches for books already written, or WIPs, or is it an exercise in pitch-writing? And, it looks as if the winning pitch will be published on W&P with a critique?LJ Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12743605175112804565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1222814162697318696.post-28358712786117834822013-04-17T08:15:17.587+01:002013-04-17T08:15:17.587+01:00Sadly not in the UK any more.
