The Assignment (2 test)
Imagine:
you’ve put all your blood, sweat and tears into writing the book that’s in front of you. Your life’s work is waiting to be published and dazzle the crowds. Only one problem: you need a publisher to publish your book.


Imagine
you’re standing in an elevator, manuscript under your arm, waiting for the doors to close and bring you downstairs. Just as the doors begin to close, a famous publisher joins you in the elevator. You can’t believe your luck and ready yourself to give the pitch of all pitches….in an elevator, in just 90 seconds…. 
What: Present your free choice book to the class in 90 seconds!

Creating an elevator pitch
The elevator pitch is a summary of what your book is about. The aim is to convince a publisher that your book is an amazing, truly one-of-a-kind piece of art and that your target group (e.g. teenagers) is definitely going to want to read the book. 
An elevator pitch has three components:
 



1. Blockbuster Concept
Part One of the elevator pitch is the Blockbuster Concept: a single short sentence describing what your book is about. A blockbuster concept is one whose themes and appeal are:
Original
Obvious
Easily communicated

Imagine you have less than ten words to tell your friend why they should go out and buy your book: what will you say? That’s your blockbuster concept.
Can you explain the concept of your novel in less than ten words?  


2. Killer Logline
Part Two of the elevator pitch is the Killer Logline: one or two sentences that explain what the main characters and conflict in your novel are. The logline explains the WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, HOW and WHY of your story.
3. Short Synopsis of Power
Part Three of the elevator pitch is the Short Synopsis of Power: the whole story told in a single page – five hundred words. You should memorise your synopsis so you can recite it to a friend, or your fellow students. Their response should be “Wow, sounds great!”
