UPDATE: Due to unforeseen events, Lauren will be reading entries through Sunday, July 8. Thanks for your patience! 

It’s finally here! The posts that follow this one are the entries for THAT DOGGONE VOICE WORKSHOP. I’ve brought together my agent, Lauren Hammond with ADA Management and some talented writers, Leigh Ann Kopans, Becca (Becks) Coffindaffer, and Marieke Nijkamp (The V-Team) who I’ve noticed had fantabulous writing voices to help me out. Go here for more information about the workshop and a post about voice.

And here’s the quick details…

Lauren will take the next week to tell the lucky winners’ (who snagged a spot in the workshop) whether their first 250 words of their finished manuscript or work in progress has voice or not.

Introducing the Voice Team … 

Along with the talented Lauren’s comments, I have a team full of awesomeness who I feel have such wonderful voices that will critique the entries during the week.

Please do not comment until Lauren and the V-Team have critiqued the entries. If you have questions or want to cheer on your friends you can do so on this post. Thank you!

If you want to rework your entry, post it in the comments of your entry’s post. Becks and I will critique those/or the originals if you prefer.

Can anyone comment on the entries?

Is there a hashtag you want us to use on Twitter?

And a helpful tip: anyone can “subscribe by email” to a specific post, and comments will get sent to their inbox. Great way to monitor your entry (and others that you want to root for) without a repetitive stress injury to your refresh-button finger! Good luck, all.

Please save comments until after Lauren and the V-Team have critiqued the entries. They have a week to make their comments.

We could use the hashtag #VTeam.

Brenda Drake · June 29, 2012 at 7:39 am

Okay, maybe not #VTeam for the hashtag cause it’s already used. How about #VoiceTeam

Is #Doggone taken, B?
