Is there a word-count range agents prefer for upmarket thrillers? Any # in a query where you just go "too long for the genre?" #AskFuse.@Sean__McIntyre 80-90k is usually good for that, but it varies a bit. Try not to exceed 100k. #AskFuse

@FuseLiterary Can you tell us how caught up you are on queries? For instance, cleared all subs as of "x" date? #AskFuse.@Steve_Goble I don't have that data, but most of us should be caught up through 2015. #AskFuse

#AskFuse Do you ever consider time travel as its own category? For instance--#YA #TT.@roxannelambie It's a subcategory of SF/F. Try to think of your ms in terms of which shelf it would occupy. #AskFuse

Sean McIntyre @Sean__McIntyre
Is there a market preference (even if subtle) to stories set in past instead of present tense? #AskFuse.@Sean__McIntyre Overall, no, but it depends upon what you're writing. YA, for example, leans more toward immediacy than adult. #AskFuse

Sean McIntyre @Sean__McIntyre
How important is social media platform compared to quality of work or writer's voice for fiction? #AskFuse.@Sean__McIntyre Quality of work is always* more important than platform in fiction. #AskFuse
