If you are ready to query a new MS, should you withdraw a previous MS that is still under consideration by agents or include them? #askDVpitWithdraw the previous one if you no longer want it to be considered! #askDVpit

My word count is at 60,000 for a contemporary romance is that too low? #askDVpitThat might be too short for some print lines and perfect for others. It would be fine for digital. #askDVpit

If you write in different genres but your pitch is <3 my an agent who doesn't rep all, should you still supply material? #askDVpitbut only send if you are otherwise interested in working with the agent; don't just send to anyone and everyone. #askdvpit

#askDVpit It seems like psychological thrillers and sci-fi are the coming "wave" in YA? What do you all think?wish I could give you a sure answer! It's hard to predict what the next wave will be, and harder to write to it. #askdvpit

#askDVpit It seems like psychological thrillers and sci-fi are the coming "wave" in YA? What do you all think?I sure hope so! Editors I talk to are interested, but there seems to be less of a "next big trend" in YA right now. #askDVpit

Funny, high-concept, and/or diverse historical romance! Latinx romance characters! A little explored time & place! #askDVpit

@DVpit_ If my 2 MCs are 17 and 18, would that automatically mean I add #YA to my pitch? :) #AskDVpitnope -- it could be adult with teen characters. It has to do with the tone, voice, temporal perspective, etc #askdvpit

It feels like a lot of LGBT romances are more contemporary, is there a place for historical LGBT rom? (Specifically F/F and Ace) #askDVpitI personally would love to see it! It's such an underserved area. #askDVpit
