@Seshat4211 Research! Professional! Concise! Pitch not synopsis. #askPSLA

@trm5507 only if you can maintain it! Nothing worse than a ghost account or blog #askPSLA

@zachbistall subtly yes, but with the voice, not necessarily jokes. #askPSLA

@PrichardElla I don't handle religious books, sorry #askPSLA

@TanyaPresse no need to mention. 9 months is good amount. Don't want to seem like you're throwing stuff to see what sticks #askPSLA

@MLVillax that's the attached part, not the query itself #askPSLA

@MLVillax 1-3 pgs #askPSLA

@Seshat4211 LOTS!!!! As many as you want to work with. Unless you're getting strong feedback that suggests pulling it. #askPSLA

@Downith depends on how slowly! If it hooks me and it's slow I'll ask for revisions to improve pace #askPSLA

@PattiMHall yup #askPSLA

@AgnesGomillion comp titles are good for that & developing a platform (ie pitching essays to magazines to make yourself an expert) #askPSLA

@WritingRen I only resub to editors if they've requested to read again. I may, depends on case but it's rare #askPSLA

@sarahvtompkins comp titles are not 100% necessary. Only pick them if they're a perfect fit for your book & context #askPSLA
