Replying to @Malcolm_Omega

There are so many paths into this industry. I’m was a Communication major. Some people study Creative Writing or Publishing or English or even Law. Another way is to get an internship

Noreen @naziaso

@annmrose #askagent how important is the voice in a WF/romance? In single POV narratives what else are you pulled into besides the theme and the voice?
Replying to @naziaso

For me, voice is very important. I want to feel like I'm reading a novel, not a school text book. The concept of the story should be grabbing too, but it's voice that will ultimately have me keep reading or not

H.L. Reilly Osial @hlosial

@annmrose @jenichappelle How many followers do we need to have on Twitter to make it worth including in our query letter?
Replying to @hlosial

Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. Just right a damn good book we can't say no to (and of course a good query to go with it)

A M Duperre (Doo-perry) @A_M_Duperre

@annmrose When receiving queries, do you prefer the person jump right into the story or put in a personalization and/or bookkeeping info first? #askagent
Replying to @A_M_Duperre

For me it doesn’t really matter. If they jump right in and I’m lost immediately, I’ll look for the bookkeeping info, but a good query is a good query so order doesn’t matter

Emily Rae @By_EmilyRae

@annmrose How often do agents look at a querying author's website/social media to see if they know how to market themselves?

Good luck to your son!😁
Replying to @By_EmilyRae

I can’t speak for anyone else, but I always look up authors before I even ask for pages. Not to see if they can market themselves, but to make sure they aren’t an asshole

Author Daisy Blaine @_DaisyBlaine

@annmrose What influences your decision to ask for a partial vs a full MS? #askagent
Replying to @_DaisyBlaine

My intrigue vs my reservations about the story. If I have reservations, I’ll ask for a partial. If I’m more intrigued I’ll ask for the full.
