@FuseLiterary is it important that the agent be in the same location as their client #AskFuse.@fairly_literary These days it doesn't matter where the agent or client lives. #AskFuse

If a YA query is turned down for being "adult" which is the most common culprit: voice, content or writing style? #AskFuse.@ACampbellReed They're all common, but often it's content. They're writing a book about teens that's for adults 1st and teens 2nd. #AskFuse

#askfuse #amwriting is it okay to query a publisher without an agent?.@emshue_ak Sure. Most larger pubs require an agent, but many indies don't. Don't query agents & pubs simultaneously. #AskFuse

Discussing your additional projects with a potential agent, but your new WIP is something the agent doesn’t rep? Just trash it? #AskFuse.@ACampbellReed Always discuss yr work w yr agent. For example, we have clients writing in diff genres & repped by diff Fuse agents #AskFuse

Katie Lewis @kathryndlewis
#AskFuse How do you define women's fiction, and why is it classified separately from literary fiction? #amwriting.@kathryndlewis It's not the best term but WF = specifically for women. I precede it w Literary, Upmarket, or Commercial, depending #AskFuse

Meg Ripley @ripley_meg
How do agents at @FuseLiterary feel about serailization of fiction on sites like Wattpad while querying? Exposure= good or bad? #AskFuse.@ripley_meg Though it isn't necessarily a killer, it removes some options & may be releasing the work before it's properly edited #AskFuse

Do you like to hear about a fiction writer's social media presence in the query letter? #askfuse.@JenWeingardt Platform is less important in fiction than nonfiction, but if you have it, let us know! #AskFuse

#AskFuse Got a form rejection from agent (not 1 of yours) in less than 1 hr after sending. Re-query? Query another agent from same agency?.@ThWritingSpider Don't requery an agent just because they sent you a form letter. Likely no, but check the agency guidelines. #AskFuse

@FuseLiterary #askfuse how would you categorize fantasy with no magic or creatures in it, but everything else made up? Low fantasy?.@amandaLcharles I wouldn't say "no" fantastical elements, but low fantasy is significantly less reliant on them than high fantasy. #AskFuse
