Writing Prompt: Your Twitter Pitch

by mariaschneider on January 19, 2009

This week’s writing prompt was inspired by literary agent Colleen Lindsay who held a Twitter pitch contest last week.

Now here’s a real exercise in brevity for you, and a way to whittle your pitch down to its very essence.

The Prompt: Write your Twitter pitch (140 characters or fewer!) and post it here in the comments or on the forum.

And I’ll let you know if and when Colleen opens up her Twitter pitch contest again.
