Dierdre bared her teeth and chittered at him angrily, racing off with his button.

Burying the button, she thought to herself, what a poor trade it was for the home that was felled with the tree. But at least the lumberjack would know the cold, too.

Dierdre picked up the shiny red button from the newly sawed stump and turned it in her hands.
"Oh, there's my button", said a large, bearded lumberjack, his cream-colored long johns peeking out of his red flannel shirt where the button had popped off.

And, if you'd like to donate books or other prizes to the winners of #TimmyPitch, too bad. It isn't a contest. There are no prizes. Just fun. If you'd like to help spread the word, well, that would be nice. Thanks.

We're thinking maybe biannual (the twice-a-year kind of biannual) #TimmyPitch events possibly run concurrently on both Twitter and Blue Sky. With maybe April 1st being the first one.

#TimmyPitch isn't anything other than a hopefully fun fake #kidlit pitch event. So, if you'd like to participate in #TimmyPitch, you are most welcome. Follow this Timmy Pitch account and we'll keep you updated on the first #TimmyPitch event.

Also, I happen to be the President For Life of TIMS and I can guarantee that your concerns will fall on deaf ears, Tim.

So, I thought #TimmyPitch was a good name that would offend the fewest number of people. Also, if you are named Tim and you have a problem with the name #TimmyPitch, you'll have to take it up with the Tims International Mostly-Benevolent Society (TIMS).

As a Tim, I've grown accustomed to Tims getting next to zero respect from the media/creators. And to be honest, I don't care. And I don't think any other Tims care either. They have more important things to think about without being offended by the name of a silly fake #kidlit pitch event.

*Only partly joking about that description.
