JW Members Only – elevator pitches please!
Hello JW members
As per my email – can I have your elevator pitches please for the webinar next week. Webinar info here:
https://members.jerichowriters.com/content/perfecting-your-elevator-pitch-with-harry-bingham/
(That link does work – I’ve just checked it – but you do need to be logged in to the JW site to see it.)
Rules for the elevator pitch:
- One submission per person please
- JW members only (sorry everyone else – but this is a members only event)
- Max 50 words per pitch
- But aim for less. Most pitches can be done in <20 words, and often <10
Hope to see loads of you at the webinar. I’m looking forward to it myself …
‘The Game-Changer’
Charles Baron, a BBC correspondent and journalist released from an Iraqi gaol, returns home to an unexpected and hostile reception.
The Inheritance of Cruelty
Best friends flee a brutal school and vow to change the world. One becomes a trained killer. His friend struggles for social justice. When they betray each other, revenge turns into a battle for survival.
With the treaty broken, and the ancient war revived, sides must be chosen and oaths must be honoured, no matter the cost in this life or the next.
Jack’s mission to stop two cartels merging and dominating the western world’s heroin traffic presents an opportunity to avenge his girlfriend’s murder. But one mission jeopardises the success of the other. Is he willing to sacrifice one?
I clicked on my own ‘like’ icon by mistake. It’s now disappeared. Anybody know how to correct it. Thanks.
I don’t know if you can remove a like but you can copy, delete and report the original pitch. On the other hand, there’s nothing against ‘liking’ your own work!
Thanks Pandavi. I think I’ll leave as is. Probably make it worse if I try to correct it. Not very savvy when it comes to this social media – as you can tell!!
Haha! Me neither. Good luck with the novel by the way. Sounds good. I gave it a ‘like.’
Paul
A young feminist and only heir to her mother’s time traveling legacy must rescue those left in the turbulence of her mother’s wake, including their noble Irish ancestors caught between the Tudor Crown and Spanish Inquisition.
A disgraced Irish journalist who snoops into his brother’s suspicious death in Venezuela unearths a corrupt U.S. drug trial of an opioid painkiller that is set to kill millions globally.
Hi all,
Above is the synopsis for my novel Bad Blood.
I’m a new member of Jericho and this is my first post on the site. Looking forward to engaging with you all over the coming week/months/years.
How much can a friendship endure, when one friend is a ghost relentlessly haunting the other?
Set in the near future, a boy is searching for his father. Becoming a climate refugee after his house falls into the sea, the boy meets a girl. Together they expose the shady corporation responsible for his father’s disappearance.
Ride the bumper cars of pathos and absurdity and bungee jump into a neurotic abyss at Little Wold village fete.
Bold Crossings is two coming-of-age narratives from the American west. Malcolm, Anglo, struggles through his family’s migration to central Texas. Wukubuu, Comanche, is a strong seer who longs to learn healing to the tedium of marriage. Though often within miles of each other, their lives couldn’t be more different nor—teens that they are—more similar.
