Happy Aromantic Awareness Week to all the aro-spec folks out there, especially within the Writing Community! 💚🖤🤍

That's a wrap!!! 🌈💕 We cannot thank you all enough - our participants, supporters and industry professionals who came out today! For the entire #QueerPit team, today was wonderful and we wish everyone the best of luck with your queries and submissions 🍀🤞

Okay, Okay I'm here. If I like your #QueerPit post, please query directly with the link below! QueryTracker.net/query/REstep/Q…

#QueerPit if we like your pitch, our submissions form is on the submissions page in my pinned tweet. We track all submissions through this submission form. We have no email address allocated to submissions. We look forward to reading you! 🤍

I'm on #queerpit today and if I (heart) your submission, please submit a query and the first 50 pages to me on this link: QueryManager.com/tinapschwartz/…

WOW! 😀 We have been amazed by all the incredible pitches so far today during QueerPit!!! Remember - you can post new pitches until *8 PM* Eastern time ⏰️ Don't forget to PIN 📌 your best pitches to your profile so that agents who browse the event later can easily find them.

I am excited to be looking through #QueerPit today! If I ❤️ your pitch, please send your first three chapters & a synopsis to jweis@theweisagency.com, with your query letter in the body of the email. Looking forward to all your pitches! 🏳️‍🌈

@writer_kait Correct. To participate, you should be actively or ready to query your project or be seeking editors for on submission projects if you are already agented.

@QueerPitContest just for query ready works right? not wips?

🙌🏳️‍🌈 #QueerPit is tomorrow starting at 8 AM! 🏳️‍🌈🙌 Are you ready? 👀 We are! Can't wait to see you there! 🌈🌈🌈

@JALwrites Thank you James! We did make note of this in our last thread detailing this year's rules, and our team will do our best tomorrow to monitor pitches and remind authors to add ALT text if we notice it is missing.

@QueerPitContest Can you remind people to add alt text to their graphics please? I have a friend who relies on it and always misses out on so many pitches as people either forget or don't wish to add, and it makes pitch events less inclusive. Thanks!

@talishammas We just sent you a reply! Apologies for the delay and let us know if you have any further questions.

@QueerPitContest Hi there! Super pumped for this! I sent you a quick question via DM <3

#QueerPit is just 5 days away!!! 🌈🙌🤯 We can't wait to welcome our community's writers to this year's event. Here are a few ✨️ key reminders ✨️ and FYIs for all our participants: Thread ⬇️

@renatyev All graphics are allowed!

@QueerPitContest Can’t wait for the event! Quick question: are agent guides allowed, or just moodboards?

@AuthorJennyLane @Wisteraverse Agented authors can participate but should include "EDITORS" or "For Editors" or something similar in their pitch.

@QueerPitContest @Wisteraverse Just confirming it's only for querying authors--not agented authors on sub?

@Wisteraverse If you are querying a manuscript currently and seeking representation for it, you are welcome to participate with that manuscript 😊

@QueerPitContest This is awesome! One question: is it only for querying authors? I have one MS I'm querying and another I'm self-publishing. Thank you 😊

5) ONLY industry professionals may "like" pitches. Other writers may show support for pitches by commenting and retweeting/posting. However, other writers should not like pitches. Questions? Feel free to reach out to us or DM us! ❤️🌈✨️ See you on August 15!

4) Make sure to include *at least one* Age and Genre hashtag in each of your pitches. Our hashtags are listed here on our website: queerpit.wordpress.com
