The whole day today, for 12 hours, I'm going on an amazing hiking and rock-climbing trip. All nature, all trees...it's going to be amazing. I feel it bubbling inside and I'm going to LOVE it. So I won't be on my phone or the Internet until late at night because I just don't want it with me on a trip like this.
SO I'LL SEE YOU TONIGHT AT THE TWITTER PARTY!! I might even Tweet pics of the trip :)
TWITTER PARTY!!
It's time to hang out and have fun!
There will be topics and things to talk about starting today, May 21, and during the wait time until the chosen entries are released on May 30th. We’ll start with naming your category/genre to help those who may not be so sure to finalize their answers.
Just tweet your answers under the hashtag #QueryKombat and have some fun meeting and talking with other Kombatants, judges, and your hosts.
May 21st Tweet your category and genre. Ask questions about genre if you’re unsure where your manuscript fits.
May 22-23rd Tweet what time you submitted your entry to our QK email. Nerves and jitters can be calmed by sharing with others. Also tweet out what you find the hardest about writing. Is it keeping out telling? Writing action scenes? What’s hard for you?
May 24th Tweet your main character’s name and a special tidbit about them. See what sorts of names are popular and if anyone else shares MC’s names with you.
May 25th Tweet your entry Nickname and why you choose it.
May 26th Tweet out those first lines.
May 27th Tweet the very last lines of your manuscript.
May 28th Tweet us your villain’s name and something evil about them.
May 29th Tweet the title of a soothing song that is helping you get through the day before the picks are revealed. Hold hands and sing Kumbaya lyrics like the band of friends you’ve become. (We’ll be running around like crazy gerbils getting everything ready.)
The hosts will post reminders for you in the #QueryKombat feed. It’s all about “Getting to know you, Getting to know all about you” and having fun!
