Connection established. Signal stabilized.
If you are seeing this message it means you’ve been vetted via the H.E.L.M. database of potential writer heroes. Director Fury himself initiated this program and, as we’re sure you’re aware, he has a knack for calling on some of the best. Congratulations, you’ve got what it takes. But answering the call is only half of the equation. The other half is what you bring to the table.
To participate in the H.E.L.M. initiative you need two things. The first is a 35 word pitch for your completed and polished manuscript. 35 is a hard limit. The second is the first 250 words of that same manuscript. If 250 hits the middle of a sentence (by middle we mean genuinely the middle, like right here, not two words into it) then finish. 255 is the hard limit.
For those not sure what we mean by completed and polished: if a S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent was to provide clearance for you to send you work today, the only thing keeping it from going out immediately is whether you have direct access to your computer.
What this means is all potential recruits need to be good to go, all green, wheels up on that manuscript. You’ve got a little over two months from today to get mission ready.
We’ll be in contact.
