Extreme Pitch Makeover for Writers - Four Proven Methods to Pitch Books that Sell!
Renee Andrews' first pitching experience could be described in much the same way as a witness describes testifying in court. She told the book, the whole book, and nothing but the book. Since that time, she’s learned that there’s no reason to sweat while pitching. In fact, pitching can be FUN!

In Extreme Pitch Makeover for Writers, Andrews defines four types of pitches and helps you decide which method works best for your particular book. You’ll start by learning the GMC (Goal, Motivation and Conflict) Pitch. This can also be referred to as your elevator pitch or mini-pitch. You’ll find this pitch is the perfect starting point for your agent or editor appointment.

Then you will learn about elaborating on that GMC Pitch and generating your Cover Blurb Pitch. After those pitches are mastered, you’ll move on to the popular High Concept Pitch.

And finally, you’ll discover the Multi-hook Pitch, another form of the popular Cover Blurb pitch.

By the end of the book, you’ll be ready to face that agent or editor appointment with gusto—your smile in place, your confidence soaring, and your response ready: “Sure, I’ll be happy to send the full!”

(Includes sample pitches and templates for creating your own pitch.)

About the Author

Renee Andrews spends a lot of time in the gym. No, she isn't working out. Her husband, a former All-American gymnast, co-owns ACE Cheer Company, an all-star cheerleading company. She is thankful the talented kids at the gym don't have a problem when she brings her laptop and writes while they sweat. When she isn't writing, she's typically traveling with her husband, bragging about their two sons or spoiling their bulldog.

Renee is a kidney donor and actively supports organ donation. She welcomes prayer requests and loves to hear from readers! Write to her at or visit her Web site at reneeandrews.com.
