Honestly I worry most about ...Very concise, Linda.<br /><br />Honestly I worry most about writing the dang book more than I do the pitching, because if you have a great story, you've all but made it. Agents/Editors will pick out a good story easily, even if an author's nervous in a pitch. As long as you have that hook (like in Linda's good examples above), the agent/editor will be able to tell right away if it's something he/she can do with their publisher and can move on to actually reading the manuscript.<br /><br />I'm excited for all of you who are pitching. Hope to be there soon with you.Kirk L.

Sometimes it's just not fair that we have to work so hard to write the book and then we have to work so hard to sell it.<br /><br />I have a brother-in-law who is an amazing new age musician. But he doesn't have the skills to sell himself. So, his amazing music is passed around the family and now he's given it up. <br /><br />So we can't give up on the selling part, but oh its scary. ;)DJ Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04615339246113917504noreply@blogger.com
