The 140-Character Twitter Elevator Pitch #WVTP

In one hour and with the help of four amazing crit partners (I love Twitter) my Writer’s Voice Twitter Pitch (practice pitch since I’m not actually in the Writer’s Voice contest) went from Version 1 to Version 5. Quite proud of it’s metamorphosis. No idea if I’m ever going to use this but it might make a nice Twitter bio.

Any comments on how to make my #WVTP better? Send them my way!

Version 1

A political storm is rising, his fiancee is dead & school has just begun. To stop his execution five friends must master their magic. #WVTP

Version 2

A crisis at court leaves Maride accused of murder. School has begun, his execution looms & five friends face the trials together. #WVTP

Version 3

His fiancée’s death leaves Maride accused of murder. School has begun, his execution looms & five friends face the trials together. #WVTP

Version 4

At the Madrassa four unlikely & untried allies forge a bond: A dragon, a healer, a storm-caller, a librarian and a guardian. #WVTP

Version 5

After a mysterious death, five unlikely allies forge a bond at a magical academy to save their kin from the fire storm that’s brewing. #WVTP

In version five *fire* is both literal and figural. There’s going to be an actual firestorm and there’s a political fire storm brewing. I think the vagueness gives it a sense of urgency.
