Amy H. replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"Kyle may I recommend a podcast? Writing excuses is amazing and super helpful. They do a variety of topics from planning, to general writing, to getting over issues, and being publishable. "
Kyle Johnson replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"Thanks for your feedback. It's very thorough.
The new characters in this novel were created on the fly. "Beardfree" is named so because he has no beard, whereas the "typical" pirate usually has a large one. Washington is…"
Kyle Johnson replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"I am working on this. Thank you for your feedback! DFTBA!"
Kyle Johnson replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"The "win" won't be mentioned in the pitch. There are thousands of winners, so not much cred is to be had. The pitch is between the "---" markings above.
As far as Beardfree's dream, it is more along the lines of the…"

5. Re-name George Washington too, unless he is supposed to be the AU equivalent of the US's First President. In general do not borrow important people full names unless you intend the character to…"
Alix Cohen replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"Sounds like a good start."
Vertigo_One [Ops Mod] replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"I'm inclined to agree with one of the other reviewers here. This pitch is far too explainative. It gives too much detail, and I feel like I'm being explained the story, rather than being interested by it. Limit the backstory, even if it is…"
Amy H. replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"The point of a pitch is to grab your reader into a head lock and have them love you for it. Also it should only HINT at the awesome under parts of the story while laying bare the primary conflict. Pitches also belong under the K.I.S.S.…"
Alix Cohen replied to Kyle Johnson's discussion Looking for Pitch Critique in the group Writer Nerdfighters!"How does one "win" NaNo? I'm pretty sure you just complete it. Also, how much street cred does that give you in the realm of actual paper publishing?
It's an interesting story, and this is a series I'd like to read, but a…"

Looking for Pitch Critique
Hello, my name is Kyle, I am a 22 year old writer from Springfield, MA. This November, I won NaNoWriMo with the rough draft of Realms Quintessential: The Book of Water. I plan on submitting my novel in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest in 2013. My pitch is below. Any constructive criticism is appreciated :) ---Oceana, the capital of Viribia’s Water Realm, is the ideal vacation location. It has everything from beaches, to shops, to restaurants, and even the world’s finest sporting…See More

R10: First Intermission Update
So four months out of 2010 are done! Time flies!
Here is an update on my progress:
Fitness:I am at 221 pounds at the moment, but my running schedule has been hindered lately by colds. Some other underlying issues may have come up, but I don't want to speculate on those until I get some information.
Money: I actually do have the money saved to get a Wii! Budgeting does work! I slacked in April though, forgetting to make a budget for April and a… Continue

Four-Point-Two
I haven't been on the Ning in a while. Here is an update on my fitness goals.
So far this year, I have lost 16 pounds. I'm sitting steady at 218 pounds right now.
I've started to pursue my goal of finishing a half-marathon this year. I've joined a school group of student who want to learn to run or people who need the motivation to run.
I had been sick for about two weeks before I started running. The half-marathon schedule starts off at running three miles "a day" (I… Continue

Resolution 2010: Get a Life!
It's always the question we ask when a year comes to a close: what will I do for next year? It's often difficult to choose one thing to focus on, let alone dedicate yourself to accomplishing that one thing. I figured I would start here with a list of things I could work on for 2010, with a general idea in mind that I want to improve my social life.
