- It's official! Our first pitch event will take place on July 25, 2024 - 10am-8pm ET 🌊 Save the date and spread the word #WritingCommunity and #AmQuerying authors.
- #SmallPitch is officially over! Thank you everyone for participating (the authors, the publishers, the bots... 🤖) Again, don't forget to check your pitches over the next few days, and for those who already got publisher likes, congratulations! 🥂🎉
- #SmallPitch begins NOW! Let's open the pitch floodgates and make waves 🙌
GIF - Here's the final list of presses participating in #SmallPitch (unless we get some last-minute additions). Also, some editors will likely participate spontaneously without being on the list, so don't consider it exhaustive. Link to the list in the next tweet ⬇️
- New resources available for #amquerying authors: a list of small/indie presses accepting unagented submissions! The list already compiles 100+ presses across genres and audiences, and keeps growing thanks to our #SmallPitch Discord members. Check it out!
- #SmallPitch will be back in six months (that takes us to January 2025), and this time the event will be reserved to underrepresented authors, agented and unagented. Our July 2025 event will remain opened to all unagented authors. So... get your next manuscript ready!
- The #SmallPitch pitch submission window is now OPEN for 48 hours! Key reminders: - Unagented writers only - Finished manuscripts only - One pitch per manuscript only - Up to 3 manuscripts per writer - No hashtags in your pitch - Comps & emojis are okay
- #SmallPitch has been live for 5 hours already! How is it going, writers? Are you getting press/editor likes and finding how great the #WritingCommunity is?
- It's official, #SmallPitch comes back for another indie/small press-focused pitch event on July 7-8, 2025 🌊 This time, it will be open to all unagented authors from the #WritingCommunity. Check our website for more details ⬇️
- If you got a publisher like during today's #SmallPitch, and end up getting a pub offer and signing with them, please let me know! I would love to feature your book in a "success stories" section on the event's webpage 🔥
- We just sent the password to participating publishers! This means the request window is OPEN and pitching authors may start receiving requests... Good luck everyone! To a successful #SmallPitch 🌊
- #SmallPitch is coming to its end... but is it really? While the window to post your pitches will close in less than an hour, some editors will still be going through pitches over the next few days, so keep checking your likes until the end of the week 🤞
- We got a little surprise for when we reach 2,000 followers 🌊 #SmallPitch
