Here at Novel Novice, I have been keeping a journal of sorts detailing my experiences as a struggling YA novelist. Currently I am seeking representation for my YA novel, SUBLIME. My previous entries have included my attempts at writing the dreaded query letter, my first chapter, and starting a twitter account. Today, I am excited to showcase a book trailer I made for SUBLIME. I hope that you will hop over to our author’s section to see all of the posts.
Why might Twilight fans like this book?
It has a strong, female protagonist.
It has a forbidden love story.
And because I said so…er……


To be honest, I think you’ll get published.
This story is so thought-out and the plot is so detailed and gripping. Anyone would be mad not to publish this.
I think you’ve got a very very good chance š
That’s awesome! I’ve been thinking about making my own book trailer, but my movie-making skills suck. Yours looks professional. Mine would look like I let a monkey use my computer.
Ms. Truitt,
First, I wanted to congratulate you on finishing a novel. Second, I read your query letter then watched you trailer. I really liked the trailer and honestly, I usually don’t like book trailers…I do have a few suggestions, simple ones, if you’d be interested pertaining to your query letter.
Again, congratulations on hard work well done and I wish you success.
