How to Write A 1 Page Pitch For Your Novel Or Screenplay



CONGRATS! You've got a read request for one of your screenplays or novels.

BUT WAIT! Never send your work without a One Page Pitch (aka the "synopsis", novelists). A One Pager is a GREAT opportunity to sell your story "off the page" and get in that reader's good books. Wait ... What's that you say? You already have a One Page Pitch? GREAT ...

... Is it any good, though? How can you tell? 

Of course, in an ideal world, One Pagers would *only* be judged on whether the idea behind them is appealing or not. In reality, having read hundreds (if not thousands) of the the damn things, I can tell you 9/10 they're judged in the negative and succeed only in demotivating the reader from wanting to read your script or novel.
