Welcome to Fantasy Pitch Wars! A pitch is a 100-word (or less) summary of a full-length novel, telling potential readers about the main character, the conflict, and the stakes in a compact, bite-sized manner. This is the heart of a story and something you would tell a stranger in an elevator ride if you want to talk about your story. In Pitch Wars, test the waters and find potential readers by telling us about your stories, whether they are already completed, currently ongoing, or are yet to be written! Discover ways to make your fantasy stories shine. Interested? Learn more about this challenge inside. Check out the 2025 and 2024 Outstanding Pitches inside!
