Anyone else doing PitDark?

Taking place October 20, can pitch once an hour and it's 8am to 8pm.

I'm going to to try to get my horror novel out but didn't know if anyone else would be.

Good luck!

I want to, but who knows? Because it's on a Thursday, I'll miss the juicy hours.

Tried it last year, got no response. And while I could use a promising gimmick, I'm not sure I want to broadcast that in front... well, not the world, but at least some people and a ton of bots.

I intend to use Tweet Deck - you can schedule the Tweets for whenever you want so if you're unavailable it still goes out.

Stumbled across some #pitdark pitches happening today on twitter for anyone who is currently querying horror.

Brushing off the dust here. I've never tried pitching via X(Twitter). Is this still running, like not now-now, but planned for a few months ahead? I remember some of the others stopped the pitch initiatives.

I know DV Pit is gone. I think I started another thread somewhere about pitch contests that was originally about DV pit and I changed the title...please hold.

I don't know if it's because it's early in the year or because Twitter has become a cess pit of right wing hate speech, I mean, haven of free speech, but I didn't see anything when I searched for 2024 events.

Aw *sad face*... Not that I had hopes for getting likes, more to try that too and say I did it.
