I hope the pitch war goes well! Good luck! You are awesome for being brave!
Good luck with Pitch Wars! I entered too. At first I was watching the Twitter feeds, but I gave that up when I realized my mentor picks weren't tweeting much and what was the point of getting my insides twisted up into knots over vague comments that probably had nothing to do with me! I agree that queries are a bear. Trial and error. Trial and error. Do keep trying to get feedback on the query. You'll improve it faster that way.
Good luck! It sounds like you've put a lot of work into your manuscript, so somebody out there should want it!
Good luck! Fingers crossed you get picked. I give you credit for jumping in, showing my work to people makes me nervous too, it's nerve-wracking!
Praying you get good news!
If it's the best you could do, both the story and the pitch, then that's what really matters. Have faith in what you wrote.
I'm just like you when it comes to showing my work. (Like, I'm still a nervous wreck whenever I post a new comic strip. *head-desk*) Wishing you the best of luck with Pitch Wars and that you hear something about that soon so you can start feeling less nervous!
Congrats on that major tightening of your novel!
I hate queries. So much. That's a small part of why I've chosen to go rogue... I mean indie.
Happy late IWSG to you!
