Currently going through submissions, and I just read a query the sounds really interesting, however, the author describes it as women's fiction, thriller, chick lit AND suspense... It really can't be all four. Please know your genres - it's very important. #querytip

If you start your query with "I know my book may be a stretch..." just don't send it. Just. Don't. #querytip
