Pitch event for writers. Next event: TBD Past events: Aug, -25, Apr-25, Sept-24 Created by: @glimmer_ann
These are some of the most common opening sentences I’ve seen in manuscripts lately: -A scene with smoke billowing -The sounds of screams in the city -Blood oozing from a wound due to some conflict -A distant description of the landscape -Waking from a dream ⬇️1/2
Next #1stLinePit will be on August 30 - but only on instagram! Bc it's stressful enough to engage in a pitch event on just one platform, don't you think? 😅 Check it out here: instagram.com/1stlinepit/ #WritingCommunity #Agents #Editors
For those doing @1stlinepit, if your account is private people may not be able to share your posts, and agents unable to see them, so worth making public for the weekend.
So, I’ve decided to get a 📷 account, potentially to join in #1stlinepit. Who would like to be oomfs over there? Drop your handle below and I’ll find you!
This is a great hack to find writer peers over on 📷! Thank you Marcela! 🙏😍
