Need a logline or Twitter Pitch?
If you're tearing your hair out because there's a contest coming up and you don't have an elevator pitch, STOP.
Sit back, relax, and let the Pitch Factory
generate a logline for you
At the very least, this is something to get you started! Hope you find them helpful and/or entertaining! Have fun!

Got any other ideas for pitch formula that I could put into the Pitch Generators? Notice any bugs? Thoughts? Cupcakes? I'd love to hear from you!
I am NOT sure how this is supposed to work, but I am totally going to go check it out. It looks like it will be super-fun at the least. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWhoa...it's like an epic reverse Madlib. This is actually really helpful for thinking about ways to formulate a short pitch, though.
ReplyDeleteI love this!! I just tried it - if nothing else, this is such a great place to start!! Thanks for the helpful links!
ReplyDeleteThat was a cool use of a minute of my day. Thankya CT
ReplyDeleteI am having way too much fun with this.
ReplyDeleteThose generators are fantastic - and really appreciate all number crunching for the other #Pitch/Wars/Mad as well!
ReplyDeleteunrelated, as someone who's just starting to learn Javascript (ARGH!) - very nice.
Hope you don't mind - I loved this so much, I referenced your post in my post today (Feb 25). Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteAwesome stuff here! Pleased to meet a fellow sci-fi/fantasy writer. :)
ReplyDeleteWow. This is perfect since that's EXACTLY what I've been doing this week - sweating over a one-sentence pitch for a contest! I think I finally have it, but I'm going to check these out anyway. They're awesome! (also, you have creepy powers of prediction, perhaps)
ReplyDeleteWow - these are a great starting place for thinking about a short pitch (and also for thinking about novel conflict). Thanks for this great resource!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out!
ReplyDeleteOh this is fun!!! Too bad I have no projects ready to pitch but I guess I can always do it over and over just for fun. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so clever! It's fun to play with and really helps you think about the important parts of your novel. Major kudos to you! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt came up with some unintentionally funny answers, but some that also made me go "hmmm". We'll have to link to your generators before April's Mystery Agent Contest and see if it helps some entrants.
ReplyDeleteThis is the most awesome thing in the world!
ReplyDeleteI admit, this was awesome LOL
ReplyDeleteLOL. I got some REALLY funny and oh-so-dramatic pitches out of this. It is definitely fun to play with and gives me food for thought.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! FYI - the romance generator is not working. The others are and have been most helpful. Thank you!
