Delightfully insightful. This class made pitching feel accessible. I fell in love with my book again, and I walked away with a succinct list of ideas for my pitch.
~Pitch Series Grad
The 2026 series is grounded in our tried and true methodology, but with fresh ideas made possible by (you guessed it!) endless pitching out there in the world. While we both landed agents by honing our pitches with this method, what we’ve discovered is just how fundamental a good pitch is to the entire creative process. From getting us unstuck, to transforming garbage drafts, to cultivating excitement in others—a solid pitch is a powerful tool. We’ve continued to level up our pitching and we know you can too!
Pitch Language 101 is all about falling back in love with your book! We will meet virtually on Tuesday, March 31, 7:00-9:00 PM CST*. If you can’t make it in real time, please consider the recording-only version of the class.
Join us for this uplifting two-hour session to help you reimagine your work in the words of a pitch (for queries, contests, applications and beyond) and to reconnect with what is beautiful and beloved in your book.
Early bird sale ends March 10.
