This is a great question. I think get the perfect pitch but tailor your questions to the editor/agent/house you're pitching. #AskAvonBks

.@Laforesta1 No! I promise! #AskAvonBks

Inappropriate places to pitch: The Bathroom, My personal facebook, linkedIn, or email accounts, a funeral #AskAvonBks

Appropriate Places to Pitch: At a conference, on Twitter during a chat, avonimpulse.com, during an open call #AskAvonBks

.@michellehazen This is so personal to each story. It really depends on the pacing, your plot, etc. I like a lot of both in RS! #AskAvonBks

Biggest pitch pet peeve: Not telling me how it ends! I need the spoilers! #AskAvonBks

Questions I will have about your pitch: What genre is it? Part of a series? #AskAvonBks

Things I don't want in a pitch: The name of the heroine's dog walker (unless he is the hero), what your characters like to wear #AskAvonBks

Things I want in a pitch: who are your H/H, what tropes are you using, and what happens in the book plot-wise and emotion-wise. #AskAvonBks

Too much external plot and not enough building of the emotional relationship #AskAvonBks

"Bookperk" = @HarperCollins sale newsletter! PSA: Sign up for lots of cool deals and giveaway. #AskAvonBks @Bookperk bookperk.com

.@FayeDelacour I mostly want info in a query - I'll take the voice in the manuscript. #AskAvonBks

.@Laforesta1. No, that's generally a fun part of the job! Finding a way to help get the book there. #AskAvonBks

I often put "ha!" and "ew" and "love" in manuscripts. Also, I say "THIS" a lot when I Iike something. #AskAvonBks

TK = to come. I'm sure there's a very interesting reason why it's a K and not a C but I do not know it... #AskAvonBks

"STET" = let it stand = leave this alone. Thing authors often say in response to copyeditor changes. #AskAvonBks

I generally like a mix @LauraJillSomers. A little bit of the characters and a little of the plot works best for me. #AskAvonBks

MS = Manuscript
mss = manuscripts #AskAvonBks

"I didn't fall in love with the writing/characters" = just that. It's so important to connect with a MS and sometimes you don't. #AskAvonBks

"downprice" = when your ebook is available at a low price online. #AskAvonBks
