I've seen the occasional literary agency requiring exclusivity if they request your manuscript. Unless they gave you an R&R and asked for it temporarily, that's dumb. Writers, ignore that. #querytip

Queriers--Pretty, pretty please be sure to withdraw your submission if you accept an offer of rep (ideally, once you get the offer, but at the very least, after you accept) 😐 #querytip

Please don't respond to a rejection asking why an agent didn't read to the end. If I'm not hooked, I stop, wherever it is. #querytip

Other agents reading your full, though? That's worth noting. #querytip

Guys, no need to let me know in your query that it's a simultaneous submission! Trust me, we assume that. #querytip
