If you achieved your #NaNoWriMo goals, congratulations! (And it doesn’t have to be 50K words.)

But... take your time & revise your draft BEFORE querying, please!

We’ve just re-opened to queries and they’re pouring in! ☔️📨😊
#querytip :

@JennieDunhamLit & I SHARE queries, so no need to send one to each of us.

The good news: more bang for your buck! 😊

The bad news: if you’ve been rejected by one of us, it’s really by both of us.🙁

However, here's the really unfortunate thing: most of the time, agents and editors (referring to querying here, not sub) can't give feedback on queries. It's a complex, messy issue. I'll break it down a bit as best as I can. #subtips

This thread! #querytip #subtip
