I don't think so, if used with another example. So how is your book different to it? Six of Crows meets X #askTBA

depends on how big or well known they are, and if the agent will still recognise it #askTBA

I love movie comps. They are actually my favourite #askTBA

that is just for non-fiction bios. For fiction, I prefer less than 600 words #askTBA

you can if a simple line, but really comps shouldn't need overexplaining. That is the point of them #askTBA

yes! #askTBA

doesn't need to. Can end on question, or note of uncertainly. The job of a pitch is to spark interest #askTBA

but also, a good comp one liner. [title] is X meets X. That always gets my attention #askTBA

This blog might help jennybent.blogspot.com/2014/04/making… #askTBA

this is such personal choice. I prefer title and comps, then pitch #askTBA

pitching a book to an agent not accepting that genre/age. I often get adult queries, but I'm a kids agent #askTBA

rudeness and complaining about the industry always puts me off. What I love is a good X meets X comp line #askTBA

I tend to still read the start of the sample for voice just in case the author just can't pitch well #askTBA

it's really more about giving the reader enough to make the world believable. So as detailed as needed for this #askTBA

sure! #askTBA

I'm only looking for author/illustrated PB's right now - funny, short, with a very hooky title #askTBA

yes, will look at NF PB texts #askTBA

yep #askTBA

smaller, regional groups can be included #askTBA

BUT don't worry, debut authors don't need credits - just a good book, so if nothing apples, just leave blank #askTBA
