My first pitch!

Yesterday I met with two literary agents and pitched my completed manuscript for the first time.   With only ten minutes allotted for each agent, I had to think fast.  Being from the south I tend to talk slowly, so having to sell my manuscript to a total stranger in ten minutes or less was a daunting task.  There was no time for nerves, so I summoned up my most confident expression and marched in to meet the person who might possibly hold my future in her hands.  Only time will tell if either one was impressed enough to want to represent me.  Regardless of what happens, I live to pitch another day.
