Step Right Up for a Pitch Analysis
This is a chance for paid subscribers to have me review their pitches.
Hi everyone,
It has been quite a 2023. You can read my end of year review here.
In my short 7 minute YouTube video, I promise to do more for my paid Substack subscribers in 2024. That starts now with a gift from me to you (even if you are not a paid subscriber).
I am offering you a chance to send me one pitch —no longer than a page double-spaced —to my freelance writing direct (all one word) (at) gmail address during the month of January. Put in the headline: Pitch Review re Substack. I will only be able to provide input for paid subscribers, and it might even be selected for an upcoming episode of Freelance Writing Direct (which is free to everyone).
Depending on how it goes and how many I receive, I plan to do the same for essays. Speaking of essays: here is my latest on Shondaland, “I’m Learning To Listen in New Ways,” where I finally felt brave enough to reveal my hearing loss and how I navigated my relationship with my teenage daughter who used it against me. She approved the piece before I published it, because she knew it would help people feel less alone with this invisible disability.
I am wishing everyone a happy, healthy, and safe start to 2024.
I can’t wait to read what you’ll be writing.
