Another writer started with a VERY risky first line of her query today. Luckily for her, I laughed. Heartily. And requested. #QueryWin

I actually wrote "This is so messed up, and I'm loving it" when requesting more of a thriller. #QueryWin #JessicaFail

This manuscript is so freaking disturbing and hits an emotional note I haven't seen before. But I can't stop thinking about it.#QueryWin 2/2

Sometimes, just one sentence in, you know you'll want to request. #QueryWin

Wow! Incredibly difficult subject matter in this query, but the first page was so beautiful, I can't NOT read more. #QueryWin #FirstPageWin

This historical novel includes 1) A time period I love 2) Characters with REALLY big secrets. Yes! Request! #QueryWin

Both have smart sentences, characters behaving badly, and play with our ideas of what's real. But they're SO different. Very cool. #QueryWin

Crikey. Agent yes mode is a THING. Just requested two very different, very smart, very quirky novels. Can't wait to read more. #QueryWin

Holy cow. This pitch is for a very adult book made into a fantasy for kids. Yes yes yes I want that! #QueryWin

This query + sample very cleverly inserts images + words from that EXACT time period--right at the beginning of Nintendo. Request! #QueryWin
