Would you consider yourselves editorial agents? #askTKA

@communalmadness I think it varies among us. I’m pretty hands on editorially, but even then it depends on the writer. #AskTKA

Kirk Kraft @KAKraft

How often do writers you consult with at conferences actually submit first pages when you request them? #AskTKA

@KAKraft It’s funny how often requested material doesn’t show up. Maybe 75% actually send? Don’t keep a record, so just a guess. #AskTKA

#AskTKA How would you describe your "dream" client?

@KAKraft Great writer who hits deadlines, checks in periodically, lets me know ASAP if there’s an issue so I can tackle it. #AskTKA

Kirk Kraft @KAKraft

Do you ever take on a client whose writing shows promise but may be a little raw? #AskTKA

.@KAKraft Writing has to do more than show promise. It has to blow us away. I'll encourage promise, but raw is not ready. #askTKA

How often do writers you consult with at conferences actually submit first pages when you request them? #AskTKA

.@KAKraft Most, I'd say, but there are also people who decide their work isn't ready or get nervous or have life events intervene... #askTKA
