The winner of WriteMentor's Idea Idol is...🥁🥁🥁 🎉 Kirsti Sinclair's Middle Grade story 'Dewey Decimal is My Friend' 🎉 Judge @deedotpower said: “I loved this pitch. It’s relatively straightforward – no saving the world stakes here, but it still has a really strong sense of what’s important to the main character, so the stakes still feel high, and the emotion of what’s happening is still clear. Daisy’s incredibly relatable, and her thought process seems pitched perfectly for the age group.” Huge congratulations, Kirsti! Read the winning pitch here↪️ shorturl.at/49QYl
