We’re launching another round of first-page critiques here at TKZ! You can send us the first page of your manuscript (anonymously, of course!), and we’ll critique it. Sound good?
Here’s how it works: Send the first page (350 words max) of your manuscript as a Word attachment, along with the title, to the email address killzoneblog at gmail dot com. (We’ll take the first 33 submissions we receive over a month’s period, first come first served.) The pages will be divvied up among the Killers. From time to time we’ll post each page, and do a critique. Everyone will be able to comment as well.
Last year we had great fun doing this exercise! We’re looking forward to reading some of your pages!
I hope I made one of the 33! I missed this the last go around.
Hi Diane, as of 9:17 a.m. PT we have received 14 pages, so anyone who sent thus far is in!
This is great! Just submitted, hope I made it…
I like this time of year! Great to hear the good news.
Can it be in any genre?
Any genre is fine!
This is a great opportunity. Thanks. Hope I made the first 33.
What a great idea. Sent mine in. Keeping fingers crossed. 🙂
I hope you haven’t gotten all of your entries yet since I just sent mine in…This should be a treasure trove of info either way, very excited to see what comes out of this!
Oh no – I just saw this post. Am I too late? Do you have all your entries yet?
I only found your site this Monday through a fellow ROWer, and hope there are openings. But, what will be will be. I can always hope you will do things again next year, but I can try submitting now–what’s the worst that happens? A rejection letter.
