A full 32 entries out of the 64 lost in a valiant fight - you should have seen us hosts and the judges freak out over Twitter and in the comments of the entries about how hard it was to choose.

the Host Saves
I'm going to pick my host save a little differently. Only four [EDIT: I can't count. It's really five!] Writerbees have made it into the Agent Round :( As such, I kind of want to force my team to make those revisions! SO - if you want a chance to be my host save, send in a revised entry (same format, same everything) to the QK email address by Saturday, June 6th, 5 pm EST with the subject line 'SC Host Save - [Insert Nickname of Your Entry]'.
I'm going to pick my host save not only based on what I feel is the strongest entry (because I think all of you are strong - I picked you!) but on what I feel the agents/editors in the agent round will be requesting. It's going to be highly highly subjective! The main purpose is to force you all to do those revisions :D
Congrats everyone!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see you all at the agent round!
Thanks again! I'll get those revisions in!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity SC!
