Just got back from #MichiganWW and pitched to two agents. I GOT A PARTIAL AND A FULL MANUSCRIPT REQUEST!!!!!! What a freaking amazing day. FYI, if you ever need help doing a verbal pitch, go to @tomi_adeyemi's blog. I followed her steps exactly and man, did it pay off.

I went to the #MichiganWW today and enjoyed learning about today’s trends in publishing. Also felt some confirmation that my manuscript is on the right path. Now to find the time to finish it between #freelancing and FT #copywriting. 😂 #writinglife

As expected the panel critiquing random 1st pages at the #MichiganWW has a packed audience, and if yours gets to the 3rd paragraph…you're doing great! 😲
