#KidLitPit - What Is It All About?

-

After a search of Twitter, we couldn't find a children's fiction pitch event since 2018. Because children's


literature is inspiring our future world leaders, scientists, teachers, accountants, our future everythings, we know how important children's literature is to the world. Our stories are shaping the future. 

To that end, we decided to launch our own Kid Lit pitch event on Twitter to showcase those amazing stories for agents and publishers. 

If an agent or publisher likes 💓 your pitch it means they would like to hear more from you. Check out their submission guidelines or their Twitter profile to find out more.

When is #KidLitPit?

During out last pitch contest, there was a lot of confusion on when KidLitPit started.  This time round, to avoid confusion, #KidLitPit will start at midnight, your time. This does mean that #KidLitPit will last a little longer than 24 hours, but it will only last for 24 in your time zone.  Start posting your pitches at 00:00 26th Jan your time and finish at 23:59 26th Jan your time. It couldn't be easier. Don't worry about time zones.
