So here's the thing. WEEK 4 of said blogfest is going to be fabuloso with Literary Agent Kathleen Rushall hosting the First 200 Words Pitch Contest (YA, MG and PB only since that's all she accepts...sorry to everyone else). BUT--this is where you come in--I have to get this long list of contestants down to 10 (or 5 depending on the number of entries we have).
I NEED HELP... Judging the contest, that is. Here's why...
- I've gotten to know many of you through the blogosphere and I don't want my pickings to seem bias in any way.
- It's going to be a lot of work and I'd simply love some help.
SO
If you aren't planning on participating in the WEEK 4 blogfest contest (you can be a part of the other weeks), would you be willing to help a girl out? Leave a comment below with your email address if so.
If not, I'd love to hear about a time when you in desperate need of some help and you turned to your blog buddies or writing pals to get it.
Until next time...
Keep writing. Keep learning.
Deana, I'd be happy to help! Let me know exactly what you need me to do.
ReplyDeleteI've been writing for a while and now that my kids have graduated and moved on, I have LOTS of time to write. Been looking at contests and such to get "in the system" and get my feet wet. I would love to have this experience.

Can I take a "we'll see" on judging? It sort of depends on how I'm feeling about my query timeline. I'd love to help judge but 1) I might not have time and 2) I might want to join.
ReplyDeleteIf, however, I'm done with editing by then and sending out my first queries (as I hope to be), I'll be available. In theory. :)
I wish I could but I know I'll want to join in the fun. 5 days...SQUEE!
ReplyDeleteOh, Deana, normally this is the type of opportunity I'd jump at, but with Kathleen on my short list of agents for my historical YA, The Underground Gift, I'll regretfully have to pass.
