My most favorite pitch event is #DVPit! If I ♥️ your pitch and you think we'd be a good fit, send me your pitch, query, synopsis, and first ~25 pages to my email: elisa @ macgregorliterary .com & put DVpit request in the subject line and/or early in the email so I don't delete (I'm otherwise closed)

😭💜😭💜 (thank you Jaimie!)

I mean this in the nicest way possible way, that I wouldn't expect to be so enamored with pirates and such

Alright I have to leave #DVpit to go to a meeting. I'll likely keep scrolling if I have time at my paying job over the next couple of days. I hope this was awesome for everyone, and if you didn't get likes or interest, know it's a LOT to look through and not everyone saw your pitches. Keep going!

I genuinely feel like I would never request something like this but all of your pitches are 🔥 and I have to at least look at this if you want to send this my way

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 13h

I'm really liking these PB pitches, maybe I need to figure out how to rep them 😅

The trees hum her name. The breeze carries her song. NIEMA moves through the forest like a poem, gentle, curious, true. Niema of the Forest is a lyrical picture book about harmony between children and the natural world.

MAMA DID YOU KNOW?
The best conversations happen at bedtime when a child’s heart opens and her imagination takes flight. A lyrical story about listening, love, and giving children space to be fully heard. 🌙 #PB #DVPit #BVM #OwnVoices #WOC

I suspect I’ll be liking it by day’s end!

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 15h

This sounds really fun! (Take a look at my MSWL and if you think it’s not too much magic for me, feel free to query!)

I’m not going to lie, I keep almost hearting it even though I’m not so into ghosts

I skipped it last year because I was (and still am) so far behind, but I won’t punish myself like that again!

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 15h

And you’re getting some likes!

PB folks, this sounds so cute!

Nico wants to be like the best Lucha Libre wrestler, El Chupacabras Rojo!
But after practicing his moves and losing against El Gato and El Perro (a.k.a. his pets), he will need to regroup to face his most formidable foe… Papá!

I need more lady loving ladies in my inbox

Can't wait to read (but I'm behind so it'll be a min for sure)

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 17h

I am super interested in this, depending on how supernatural (generally not for me) this ancient god thing is! Feel free to query if you look me up and think it might work for me!
