Hey blog friends! LONG time no speak – color me embarrassed. Did I mention you look super cute today? AND CAN YOU BELIEVE IT’S November?! (HAPPY NaNoWriMo!)
As you know I was working on SECRET project, then I was editing SECRET project, then I started critiquing and beta’ing for a few of my friends/agent sisters, AND then there was a little hurricane that plowed through our area (Speaking of…if you’d like to donate please text “REDCROSS” to 90999 to make a $10 contribution, every little bit helps!) needless to say, shiz got crazy here.
So…I was thinking of ways to make it up to you, my dear interwebs friends. SINCE it’s November and my wee little heart is getting filled with TONS of early holiday cheer, it’s the perfect time to help my writing friends out.
How?
I’m going to critique YOUR work. And, since I’m all about giving choices and options, you can either send me your query letter OR your first 250 words. (In the body of an email.)
Please note! By emailing me your first page OR query letter you are automatically giving me permission to post it on the blog.
Sound good?
If you’re nodding then let’s high-five right this second. Okay. SO…if you’d like me to mark up your query letter (or first page) please send your work to Kerri.writes@gmail.com
Please put “Query Crit” in the subject line. I will send you a confirmation once I receive your email. If you haven’t heard back from me within one day – I most likely didn’t get your email. Reach out to me here and I’ll contact you.
*While I’ll be posting your query letter (or first page) on the blog, all posts will remain anonymous (meaning I won’t be including your actual name or contact information on the blog).
I think that about covers everything, but if you’ve got any questions don’t hesitate to shoot me a comment here or contact me on twitter @KerriManiscalco or you can ask me on tumblr here. And if you know writer-ly types who are looking for an extra pair of eyes on their query letters, send them this link.
HAPPY EARLY HOLIDAYS, FRIENDS!!!!
I’d love to participate in this!
*waves* I’m looking forward to critting your work!
Oooh, I love query critiques!! *assumes fly on the wall position*
You have a purdy blog, Maniscalco. I can’t believe I’ve never stopped by before. I will remedy that right away 🙂
xoxo
*blushes* Thanks for stopping over, Crandell. These crits are going to be HARD. Everyone sent me pretty darn clean query letters. SO. Much. Talent. 🙂
Yes! Finally something about car price guide.
