Spellcheck your ms! If I see more than 2 major errors in the first couple pages, I pass. Don't have time to proofread. #queryfail #querytip

Pls only 1 sub at a time. Can let me know you have more, but to be fair to others in my queue, I do not consider multiple subs. #querytip

Personal info as reason you queried me, although sweet (or creepy), comes off unprofessional. Don't do this with other agents. #querytip

No need to offer an exclusive on a full request. It's not expected (unless an R&R) and usually is unwanted pressure on our time. #querytip

An agent saying they really love your #book except for [fill in the blank] isn’t always a good enough reason to make huge changes. #pubtpiYes, sometimes a personal rejection is just a roundabout compliment, meant to encourage, not tear apart. #querytip twitter.com/brooke_warner/…
