I was sad to see the First Five Pages January Workshop
come to an end. What a talented group!
Everyone worked hard on their revisions and gave thoughtful comments. A huge
thank you to our guest mentor, workshop co-founder, Lisa Gail Green! SOUL CROSSED ,
will be published on February 25, 2015. I can’t wait to get my hands on
it! And also a big thank you to agent Tracey Adams of Adams Literary! Both provided great feedback.
Our February workshop will open for entries at noon EST
on Saturday, February 7, 2015. We'll take the first five Middle Grade,
Young Adult, or New Adult entries that meet all guidelines and formatting
requirements. In addition to our wonderful permanent mentors, we have the very
talented Chelsea Pitcher, author of THE LAST CHANGELING. If that wasn’t enough, in the final week agent Shelby Sampsel
will not only review the first five pages, but a query letter too!
FEBRUARY GUEST MENTOR: Chelsea Pitcher
Chelsea Pitcher is a native of Portland, OR where
she received her BA in English Literature. Fascinated by all things literary,
she began gobbling up stories as soon as she could read, and especially enjoys
delving into the darker places to see if she can draw out some light.
Chelsea’s paranormal fantasy, THE
LAST CHANGELING, is available now!
A Kingdom at War . . .
Elora, the young princess of the Dark Faeries, plans to overthrow her tyrannical mother, the Dark Queen, and bring equality to faeriekind. All she has to do is convince her mother’s loathed enemy, the Bright Queen, to join her cause. But the Bright Queen demands an offering first: a human boy who is a “young leader of men.”
A Dark Princess In Disguise . . .
To steal a mortal, Elora must become a mortal—at least, by all appearances. And infiltrating a high school is surprisingly easy. When Elora meets Taylor, the seventeen-year-old who’s plotting to overthrow a ruthless bully, she thinks she’s found her offering . . . until she starts to fall in love.
We are thrilled to announce that Shelby Sampsel of the
Vicky Bijur Literary Agency will be our guest agent for February – and Shelby has agreed
to review a query letter, too! See below for Shelby’s bio!
Shelby Sampsel joined the Vicky
Bijur Literary Agency after graduating from NYU. She comes to the agency with
previous internship experience at Thomas Dunne Books, Simon and Schuster, Tor
Books, Penguin Group, the Maria Carvainis Agency, and McIntosh and Otis. She is
interested in Young Adult and New Adult Fiction as well as memoirs with a
strong voice.
How exciting!
