Not unless I'm a Bad Seed, too.

I would read that book. Seriously.

Anna, I need a good laugh today. Thanks for giving me several. :)

My pleasure! Any time you need a good laugh, let me know and I will make up pitches. *g*

Squeee! Pitches on demand!

Makes me kind of glad I'm in sf which doesn't do formal pitches. I'd probably have choked on 'em back in the day.

I once took pitch at a World Horror Con. Everyone was very nice, but very confused -- not one of them had any clue how to do a pitch session. Whereas RWA has it down to a fine art.

Personally, I prefer the approach Writers Weekend took during its first year: a table n the shade with a bottle of scotch. Hee.

That definitely sounds like the most pain-free version.
