#1stLinePit Rules: - A pitch event for writers to hype and support each other - All genres and all stages of writing are welcome (e.g. writing, editing, querying, on sub, already published) - Use #’s to specify genre and status of the book, see next slide for examples - Only one post per novel. If you have several novels, you can pitch them all, but only post once per hour - Share one or more of your opening lines in the body of your post—you should share no more than can fit into a post - Feel free to add moodboards, GIF’s, images, agent’s guide, or anything you want to your post - Agents/editors/publishers are invited to participate (just “like” any pitch you’re interested in) - Most important rule: comment, like, repost, and engage with others—and have fun! :D

#1stLinePit – New Rule: Issue: During our last round of #1stLinePit, some agents commented that it was hard to determine their interest based only on the first few lines. Solution: This round, you must still share your first lines in THE BODY of you post, but you’re also allowed to share your pitch, agent’s guide, a link to a previous pitch, you’re entire first page, or anything you want in the attached images / moodboard.

Examples of #Hashtags to use. (Feel free to use other hashtags, these are just examples.)

#CMe = Critique me If you want feedback/critique on your opening lines, add #CMe If you are giving critiques: - Be honest, but also kind and respectful - Be sure that #CMe is added to a post before giving feedback - Any post missing this hashtag: offer nothing other than love and support If you add #CMe to your post: - Have an open mind to the critique you receive - If you disagree, don’t argue or try to explain/defend your work—just say thank you and take to heart that someone interpreted your words differently than you intended - Don’t just wait for feedback—search for the #CMe hashtag and give critique to others too!

Hi, Bluesky! My name is Larkin. I'm a 20-something author, completely and utterly consumed with writing things that would send my conservative grandmother into a coma.
