Sore throats are no fun.<br /><br />I entered Pitch Wars and didn't get in either, but I was so inspired by everyone and by the feedback that I received from a few of the mentors that I pitched to. :)<br /><br />I read Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell this year and enjoyed it. I have Fangirl and am hoping to get to it in the next week or so. My sister is visiting for Christmas and she read it awhile ago and recommended it to me so I'd like to read it before she's here.Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03415643304118254783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864466917051288017.post-15283428185571634172013-12-11T19:00:49.400-08:002013-12-11T19:00:49.400-08:00Yuck to sore throats - hope you feel better soon!

I hope you're feeling better very soon!<br /><br />I've heard so many wonderful things about FANGIRL lately that I really need to check it out. I enjoyed ELEANOR & PARK, so I suppose it shouldn't be a surprise that people are raving about this one too.<br /><br />I agree that it's pretty awesome when writers help one another along the way. :)Erin L.

So don't sell yourself short for just doing that! :)<br /><br />I need to get on the Rainbow Rowell wagon like seriously. I usually don't go out and buy books these days if I've never read the author or just based on word-of-mouth, but somehow I already have all 3 of Rainbow Rowell's books without having read a word. But by all accounts, each one is awesome, so I can't wait to get to it. Maybe in the new year though. Things are so hectic right now!<br /><br />Hope you feel better soon!Krispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09492607213249874138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864466917051288017.post-30427466735993545022013-12-11T13:20:27.625-08:002013-12-11T13:20:27.625-08:00Ditto on the Throat Coat tea.

Maybe in the new year though. <br /><br />Pitch Wars is so competitive, and it's all subjective too, so kudos to you for entering in the first place. I did the contest circuit last year (though not Pitch Wars). There's so much opportunity there, and more chances in the new year! I hope you were able to connect with new writers, that's always a plus.

I love the contests Brenda Drake puts on, but I didn't have an MS ready for this time.

I entered Pitch Wars last year, and even though I didn't make it in, I got some helpful feedback so it was totally worth it. This is one of those contests that I would definitely encourage people to take part in.

Sometimes I drink it even when I don't have a sore throat cause it's yummy and herbal not medisonal.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07993728503710435697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864466917051288017.post-41429764830573642532013-12-11T09:37:38.565-08:002013-12-11T09:37:38.565-08:00I'm so sorry you have a sore throat.
