While perusing through Facebook, I came across this awesome giveaway by Lisa Burstein that I thought would be an excellent opportunity for aspiring authors.
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL BLOG POST BY LISA BURSTEIN, AUTHOR OF PRETTY AMY
Contest update in yellow below!!!!!
I will be giving away 3!!! 3 chapter critiques 1 from my EDITOR(!!!) 1 from my AGENT(!!!) & 1 from ME. Any genre, not just YA!
&
A $25 gift card for Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
All you have to do is complete any of the requirements below to be entered!
I do realize that chapters are only half the battle when you are trying to get noticed by an agent or editor, so if you *WIN* one of the chapter critiques and had a purchase for a paperback or E-book of PRETTY AMY as one of your entries you will also get a QUERY CRITIQUE!!!
Why would you want to win a critique from my editor?
Because it is Stacy Cantor Abrams! Editorial Director at Entangled publishing with 10 years experience in the publishing industry. Plus she's awesome and super smart!
Why would you want to win a critique from my agent?Because it is Susan Finesman! She began scouting books, plays and narrative non-fiction for Tri-Star Pictures in 1986. Five years later, she moved on to SAVOY Pictures followed by a long and award winning stint at HOME BOX OFFICE where highlights included an Emmy. Plus she has a great eye and provides amazing feedback- amazing enough to get my book published!
Why would you want to win a critique from me?
Um, I have been through the paces of an MFA program, managed to snag an agent and 2 publishing contracts! (I hope that means it looks like I know what I'm doing)
Why would you want to win a Amazon or Barnes & Noble gift card?
Because you love to read, obvs.!
