#AskDLG Is 1st Person POV preferred over 3rd person limited or does it depend on the story?@Author_JuliaAsh just depends. I've heard some editors say they love 3rd person, but every story is different, right? I like both. #AskDLG

#AskDLG Any advice on pitching a crossover vs a single genre project? Should pitches be limited to agents who request crossovers?@Author_JuliaAsh I think if it mixes a genre an agent is already interested in, go for it! #AskDLG
