June Loglines Critique Round *Call for Submissions*

***THE SUBMISSION WINDOW IS NOW CLOSED.  UNFORTUNATELY, THIS MONTH'S ROUND HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO NOT RECEIVING ENOUGH SUBMISSIONS.  PLEASE COME BACK IN JULY FOR THE NEXT CRITIQUE OPPORTUNITY.***

This round is for loglines (also know as "taglines" and "hooks") less than 100 words to be critiqued.  Your manuscript does not have to be complete to enter this round, you just need a polished logline that includes the elements I spoke of in my recent post, "Loglines Demystified".  If you have questions, feel free to drop me a comment or email, or take a peek at previous logline entries posted here on the blog earlier this year/late last year.

From Wednesday, June 27, 2012 at 2 until Saturday, June 30, 2012 at 2, I will accept submissions. I will post them Saturday, June 30, 2012 by 4:00 PM EDT right here at KTCROWLEY.COM for critiquing.
 

Please send submissions to ktcritiques [AT] gmail.com
In the subject, please state “JUNE LOGLINE”

This round I will accept all genres and it is one entry per person, per genre (So you can submit 1 adult, 1 YA/MG).
Please list the TITLE, GENRE and your SCREEN NAME (I will not include screen names in the critique posts, this is for my use only) above your logline (format it the way you normally would). 
Your submission should look like this:


SCREEN NAME: Your Screen Name Here

TITLE: Your Title Here
GENRE: Your Genre Here
(Logline here.)
You will receive a confirmation email, but it may not be right away.  Only resend if you don't get one by the last hour of the submission window.  

If you enter, you must critique at least 5 other submissions (if there are only five, please critique all entries).  This is so it's fair for everyone involved.  If you've entered twice, critique 10 or all that have been posted if there is less than 10. 
I will accept up to 25 entries.
That’s it!  If you have any questions, please hit me up in the comments.
 Fingers crossed we can fill up the 25 spots!
Spread the word please; the more, the merrier!  Let's fill up this round and help everyone involved get as much feedback as possible.  Also, if you're not a follower of my blog, please do so, so I can continue to offer rounds like this to help writers like you perfect your work.  :)

I look forward to seeing everyone's fabulous work and critiques.

  1. Do we have to critique other entires the day they go up? I'd love to participate, but I'm going to be out of town this coming weekend, and won't be home until Monday evening.

  2. Good question! No--as long as you critique within 7 days of the posts going live, you're good. This goes for all critique rounds I offer unless otherwise noted. I'll be sure to add that to the post. :)
