@JuliaChurchill How long should a summary be within a query letter? Thanks :) #askagent@Laura_Crampton A paragraph or two usually. Tends to be shorter for younger fiction. #askagent

Would MC's age or MS content be more of a factor in defining something as either YA or NA? #AskAgent@ldlapinski I think content/tone is always the number one identifier of core reader, with age of character coming second. #AskAgent

Sian Browett @BrowettSian
@JuliaChurchill From the many submissions you receive a month, what percentage (roughly) do you ask to see a full manuscript? #askagent@BrowettSian Probably every couple of hundred, roughly. But some weeks none, and then I get lucky and a few in a day. #AskAgent

Why writers who don't have a basic website are hurting their chances of success: tinyurl.com/m4rof4oYes! I want all my clients to have a basic site, so if a potential already does, they are more appealing. #askagent twitter.com/writersdigest/…

@LA_Knight89 I think I'd need to see the term in context. @inthesestones might know. #askagent@BookEndsJessica @LA_Knight89 Yeah, I need context too for how you're using "kidlit" #AskAgent

LA Knight @LA_Knight89
@BookEndsJessica in your opinion as an agent, does middle grade count as "kidlit?" and does YA count? #amcurious #AskingAnAgent@LA_Knight89 I think I'd need to see the term in context. @inthesestones might know. #askagent
