GhostPit 👻

A spooky pitch event for writers 👻 | Next event: OCT 30! 🎃
| Created by @rebleighauthor and @CrystalBAuthor

[GhostPit 👻 @GhostPitchEvent]

Rules for #GhostPit
1. All pitches are welcome, but if your pitch is Halloween related you can use the 👻 emoji to mark it as so.
2. Absolutely NO AI allowed! AI steals from creators and is bad for the environment. AI usage can be reported to any of our hosts...

[GhostPit 👻 @GhostPitchEvent]

And...that's a wrap! #GhostPit is officially over. Thank you all to pitched today! It really is the writers that make these pitch events so special. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to see all of your wonderful pitches today! Have a great evening, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
