Katie Hamstead#SonOfAPitch is just around the corner! To help writerfolk everywhere prepare for this great query event, author and Son of a Pitch founder Katie Hamstead joined me to talk about what SoaP is, how it can help you refine your query and first 250 words, and what you need to do to participate. If you miss the participation deadline this time around—no worries! Katie runs SoaP twice yearly, with the biggest event taking place in February. Katie was born and raised in Australia. Her early years spent daydreaming in the “bush” and having her father tell her wild bedtime stories inspired her passion for writing. She now lives in Arizona with her husband, two daughters, and their dogs. When her debut novel Kiya: Hope of the Pharaoh climbed to bestselling status, Katie believed she was onto something and now has a slew of novels available. You can learn more about SoaP, Katie, and her work at kjhstories.blogspot.com, and by following her on Twitter @HamsteadKatie. Click here to listen to this episode.

Now she lives in Arizona with her husband, daughter and their dog.About the book: Kiya: Riase of a New DynastyTut has grown into his position as Pharaoh, but he is a wild young man. Naomi fears for him, not only because of his recklessness, but because he has put his trust in Ay–the man determined to destroy Naomi—despite her and Horemheb advising against it.Meanwhile, death and slavery hang over Naomi and her family. With fear of the booming Hebrew numbers causing talk of enslaving them, conscription is reinstated and Naomi fears for the lives of her other children. Especially since Ay’s children are now adults, and just as dangerous as their father. They threaten to take Itani, conspire against Tut, and pushing for power.But Tut is in trouble. While Ay’s daughter draws Horemheb’s attention, and Naomi deals with the struggles of her family, everyone’s distraction could spell death for the young Pharaoh.
