I vote for the two duos. Elizabeth Tybush and F.L Tybush V, and Katherine Ernst and Chelle Bruhn. They were both very enthusiastic and had interesting stories to tell.

Gosh, so hard – so many awesome pitches! I vote for John Krissilas. Really liked the premise and the simplicity, plus his delivery was very easy to follow. But if I could vote for more… oh boy! Would be here all day.
Dan Taylor · October 15, 2012 at 4:51 pm
Lauren McKellar reeks of awesomeness.
Stephen Hirst · October 15, 2012 at 4:57 pm
Lauren McKellar! She’s awesome!
Stephen Hirst · October 15, 2012 at 4:58 pm
Urgh… Should have read the previous posts and chosen a different adjective.
Jamie Corrigan · October 15, 2012 at 5:09 pm

Okay–I watched each Vlog. If I have to pick only one…I’ll say Robin Weeks. It’s my kind of story, and she’s so cute, and she hypnotized me–not into writing this though.
Robin Weeks · October 16, 2012 at 5:48 pm
See? White dust is powerful stuff! You don’t even know WHAT I’m making you do! 😀 Thanks!
Marc · October 15, 2012 at 7:41 pm
Number thirty-eight was really cute. Against the Falling Moons. That one gets my vote.
Pk Hrezo · October 16, 2012 at 7:00 am
This was so much fun and so many great entries. Really something everyone should try. MUCH harder than it looks.
Thanks for hosting! 😀
Sarah · October 16, 2012 at 1:19 pm
I vote for Sarah Blair!
Petre Pan · October 16, 2012 at 3:51 pm
I’m sorry, I have to go with Lauren McKellar, too!
Also, I just wanted to post and thank you for putting on this opportunity. Yeah, I felt like I’d totally humiliated myself and I wanted to hide in a closet afterwards, but it was a good experience. I’m looking forward to the next round!
Tristina · October 16, 2012 at 3:52 pm
I vote for Sarah Blair!
AG · October 16, 2012 at 4:02 pm
I vote for Sarah L Blair. She is freaking adorable and TSD is blow your mind good.
Laura Hughes, MittensMorgul · October 16, 2012 at 4:07 pm
I vote for Sarah Blair, because of the outtake reel that I was too chicken to add to my own video! 😀
Sarah L. Blair · October 16, 2012 at 4:25 pm
I’m voting for Laura Hughes, because her story sounds Aaawweeesome!
Robin Weeks · October 16, 2012 at 6:08 pm
I had to sleep on it, because sooo many pitches were soooo awesome, but I have to go with the Tybushes for some mad editing skillz, great enthusiasm, and a fun plot to boot.
I also loved John Krissilas for enthusiasm, confidence, artwork, and great comments on everyone else’s pitches. Also Amy DeLuca for unbeatable poise. And Lauren McKellar for the most hilariously literal elevator pitch. And Fiona McLaren for spookiness. And… oh, there are so many awesome pitches!
Book Omnivore · October 17, 2012 at 4:02 am
Thanks so much, Robin for your kind words! Made my day! 🙂
Brianna Shrum · October 16, 2012 at 6:22 pm
Hmmmmm, I’ve gotta vote up Lauren McKellar! It was so great that I was forced to give my husband a play by play of it after I watched it. In fact, I may make just show it to him. Hilaious and great story! ^_^
Shelby · October 16, 2012 at 9:31 pm
I vote for John Krissilas. I just loved his illustrations!
Brenda Drake · October 16, 2012 at 9:37 pm
