Here is my pitch-live video, a quick (if you consider a minute and a half quick) pitch of my novel shot with my handy dandy digital camera. I loved making this, so thank you to Brenda Drake for all her awesome contests, but this one in particular is right up my ally!!

Genre: YA fantasy

If you're interested in seeing it, my full query is posted in the last post, as I was participating in another contests (contest junkie). Thanks for viewing, hope you enjoyed!
Eeep! Creepy creepy (in a good way!) I love how you worked the whispers into your pitch... you know, cause WHISPERS OF DISASTER.... heehee that was smooth :D Good luck!
ReplyDeleteReally interesting pitch! Definitely kept my attention. My only comment is that the tone of the pitch as well as your description sounded almost more horror that fantasy. Good luck! #26
ReplyDeleteWow, really nice job!!
ReplyDelete"They don't just believe in fate. They believe they are destined to cause disasters."
ReplyDeleteGreat line! And a very dramatic pitch!
Okay you had me up until the mention of Guatemala. After that I was a little confused about what the story was. I know she hates secrets but not entirely certain why it matters besides her wanting to know. The camera movements at the end seemed a little gimmicky. I would have liked to see you look at the camera a little more.
ReplyDeleteYou did great with your voice and inflections. Loved the repeat whispers at the beginning.
You literally gave me the chills! So creepy and awesome! Good luck! #41
