KidLitGN’s 2025 pitch event officially ends tomorrow at 11:59 p.m., however, we want to offer you all a chance to network and possibly find a collaborator. Simply reply to your current pitch saying something like, “open to collaboration,” then specify what you are looking for, e.g. illustrator, writer, letterer, colorist, etc.
You can also specify what kind of collaboration relationship you are after, e.g. “looking for someone who’s flexible, good with humor, faces, animals,” etc.
You can also ask for critique partners, e.g. “looking for GN critique partners for early/chapter books and middle grade,” etc.
We’ll leave these up for a week starting next Monday, so take the weekend to add your replies (please wait until Nov. 1 or after to add your reply). Then scroll through and look for potential collaborators yourselves. You don’t have to have entered the pitch event to do this.
If you are not interested in this opportunity, use the edit feature of your pitch, then delete the text of your pitch and write “remove”. We’ll delete it on Monday, giving you a chance to collect any replies from agents or editors over the weekend.
