I’m trying to create my own twitter pitch for my WIP. So far I have:
A marquess is won for a thrice-jilted lady in a high-stakes card game. Their romance is threatened by secrets and a former lover’s thirst for revenge.
or
A marquess intent on losing all instead gains a thrice-jilted lady. She’s his perfect solution. He is everything she will not trust again.
Ugh. I hate one-sentence pitches. But they are sooo useful when revising. I wish I could get the fact that her brother won him in a card game in there, but it takes up too much space and doesn’t deliver enough punch.
I think option 1 translates more information. I also realize this comment is very late! LOL. But hey I’m reading. Congratulations on all your success.
