I’m honored and ecstatic to be chosen as a Pitch Wars 2018 middle grade mentor! Pitch Wars is a mentoring program in which published/agented authors help unagented writers revise their manuscripts until they shine. This culminates in an agent showcase during which the manuscript pitches/beginnings are featured on the Pitch Wars website, and agents can request to see more. I was a 2017 Pitch Wars mentee, and I can personally attest to how Pitch Wars changed my life! It led to my signing with my incredible agent, and a make-my-dreams come true book deal for my novel, MIDSUMMER’S MAYHEM. But even before those things happened, Pitch Wars connected me to an incredible writing community, and that has been a real game changer. More on that later. In the meantime, you can check out my mentor bio on the Pitch Wars website. If you are an unagented writer looking for someone to jump into the publishing trenches with you, polish up your manuscript, because the Pitch Wars submission window opens on August 27, 2018!
