Let’s be real.

Pitching your creative work - whether it’s a play, a personal essay, a workshop, or a bonkers-but-brilliant idea - can feel like shouting into the void while you’ve got your privates out.

Most of us were never taught how to do it.
Or worse - we were taught to feel ashamed for trying. (Pitching, and having your privates out.)

This is a no-bullshit, behind-the-curtain toolkit I wish I’d had earlier.
It won’t make rejection disappear.
But it will help you pitch with clarity, purpose, and a little less panic.

It’s available after the jump for paid subscribers.
