Season 3, Episode 14: PitMad Pitching with Lidija Hilje

Twitter pitching. I always said I’d never do it.

And then my friend Lidija Hilje, the Pitching Queen, talked me into it. Lidija also helped me put the final polish on my query letter, so since she also said she would help me polish my Twitter pitch, I agreed.

Of course she talked me into it two days before PitMad!

So after many iterations of my pitch (lots and lots of back and forth on a Google Doc!), we decided to do an impromptu Mom Writes episode about Twitter pitching contests. Well, specifically PitMad, which happens once a quarter.

I’m still honing my pitch for tomorrow (December 3, 2020) or else I’d share it here. But if you want to listen to Lidija give us all the dirt on PitMad and hear her red pen my pitch, then this is the episode for you.

Since we did it the day before PitMad, I wanted to get this episode up ASAP. So it is unedited. There is no intro. No music. No nothing. Just me and Lidija and a live studio audience! Yes, we recorded this along with a handful of listeners (which was super fun)!

So join us today for some tips and tricks and logistics behind the Twitter pitch.
