Need You Now
Ahhh, the art of the pitch. Not sure I have mastered it yet. Tying up a few loose ends to get my agent letter in the mail this week. Still working on my quick little summary of my story. If you want to give me some encouragement or advice, send it on. What makes a great pitch that someone says yes, I must read that manuscript. Until next time.

This is hard one.
I think it will depend on the reader. What one reader finds compelling with not be the case with others.
My first thought is something that is new and fresh -- a twist or something in your story that only you can do.
I know. "Thanks for nothing, Karen." LOL.
It's hard to get your hook right but keep working on it. You'll get it.
Thanks Karen.I hate this part.
Like Ryan said the other night, "Peanut butter all over the place, what a great title for a children's book". There is inherent grab in your subject matter, so let it "stick" out in your letter.
Thanks Amy!! Wish you were the one granting me my publishing contract!!
