LOGLINE CRITIQUE ROUND TWO: Call For Submissions

************
EDITED TO ADD:

If your logline was included in Round One, DO NOT ENTER IT AGAIN.  A lot of people want a chance to get their loglines critiqued; this round (and the third one) are for NEW ENTRANTS.  If Holly or I recognize your entry, it will be removed.
************

To avoid confusion:  These logline critique rounds are NOT a part of the auction.  They are simply an optional opportunity to get some feedback as you craft and fine-tune your logline.  You don't have to participate in the logline critique rounds in order to submit to the actual auction.

A logline should be as brief as possible.  The word count for these rounds will be set at 75, but that's still on the high side.  Think SHORT and GRABBY.

If you're not sure what a logline is, STOP WHERE YOU ARE.  Please go HERE and HERE for information on writing loglines.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES FOR ROUND ONE:

The submission window will be open from 9 am to 5 pm EDT today (Monday, October 6).  This is a lottery, which means the bot will randomly choose 40 entries at the close of the window.  These entries will post on Tuesday, October 7, for critique.

WEB FORM SUBMISSIONS (preferred/easiest method):

GO HERE.  Please remember to proofread before hitting "submit".

EMAIL SUBMISSIONS:

As always, send your submission to authoress.submissions(at)gmail.com.  Format as follows:

SCREEN NAME: (type it here)
TITLE: (type it here)
GENRE: (type it here)

(type your logline here)

  1. I am assuming that revised loglines from Round 1 are not permitted? (That would make sense to me, as I know there are plenty of people who didn't get picked last time, but I thought it would be worth asking.)

  2. Yes, Katrina, you're right. I should have added that. I think I will do so now. :)
