Hi Karen,
I really liked the irreverent style of your pitch video—the pop-up video style comments made me laugh a lot :) My favourite parts were the creepy, extreme close-ups... "OR SO SHE SAYS!!!" and "FOREVER!!", lol, very spooky. And overall, your pitch was very focused on just the three most important characters, which really helped me follow along. It sounds like an exciting journey!

OR SO YOU SAY...
O.O hee hee!
What John said! I was going to say the same thing. Very cute pitch! Good luck! #26
Oh, I like it!! Your story sounds super interesting, and I really liked the pitch--the little pop-ups were GREAT :) Good luck, lady! :)
I love your video... not dorky at all! The way you told the story and your facial expressions really sold it. Love it! :)
Sounds like a lot of fun! Your energy is so perfect for the story, and I love your sense of humor.
An upper middle grade! Love it! Good luck! #41
Poor Grandma. I remember seeing this story before, but I still don't know what happened to her!
You're super passionate about your story, and it shows. Good job!
This is a lot of fun and it definitely made be giggle. Good luck! #29
I love the popups! Fun! Sounds like a great adventure!
This is too cute Karen. I love this! Love the popups, love the mysterious voice. You did a fantastic job with this one!
Sounds great! Really interesting idea and I loved the pop up comments! Nice job :)
Oh! I know this story, I remember seeing it for pitmad! Fingers crossed for you!

Oh I like this one. My daughter would love this story. Eating weeds...lol
Great conflict--trying to find a missing grandmother is always a tough problem for a kid. Good work!
I really liked this premise and was very close to choosing it, but I could only choose 10. I love your personality in this video. Check on the word count for Upper MG. 75K is kind of high in my opinion. Keep pitching and get ready for Trick or Treat with an agent coming Oct. 24.
Thanks Everyone- for your thoughtful comments!! :)))
What a great pitch for Upper MG! John really said it best (darn him for moving so fast on comments!) <3
