Agent @MsMariaVicente answers your writing & publishing questions in her latest Ask Mar Collection: bit.ly/22vas1R #askagent

.@Claribel_Ortega You're honestly a few years late on that, but keep writing! Trends are cyclical. #AskFuse

.@ItsRachelConnor It's more work for the agent, but it's sometimes necessary. I've even encouraged co-authors for certain projects. #AskFuse

.@ItsRachelConnor It's not that agents don't like prologues, it's that they r often unnecessary. Be sure 2 edit & follow guidelines #AskFuse

.@TheExaltedWitch @dreamoforgonon is brilliant with SF/F. You can view all our guidelines & specialties at fuseliterary.com. #AskFuse

.@amandaLcharles That's a relative term, but it roughly means that it can be enjoyed by a more mainstream audience. #AskFuse

I had lots more to say about Agent Ethics, scams on querying writers, etc. (includes bonus lazerbeam cat.) tmblr.co/ZX42Sx23ZbbgI #AskAgent

@kklstef Yup, always. I may be behind (and thanks for your patience guys!) but I'll respond to everything. Queries & MS alike #BookEndsChat

@kklstef Yes, always. And to every query too. #BookEndsChat

@CharlesHarvey99 I’d rather see something new. #BookEndsChat

@CharlesHarvey99 I won't look at self-pub'd right now. But I'll look at self-pub'd people with an unpub'd work! #BookEndsChat

@parmita_ I carry my Kindle with me everywhere and read submissions whenever I have a few quiet minutes. #BookEndsChat

@charlesharvey99 I'd rather see your next book. #BookEndsChat

@JFKlekotka The whole business is pretty subjective. But that's part of what makes it fun and full of endless possibility. #BookEndsChat

@JBarberAuthor No idea. Probably less than 10%. Maybe? #BookEndsChat

@parmita_ I try and schedule reading days -- usually on the weekends! Of course, the best laid plans... etc. ;^) #BookEndsChat

@jbarberauthor not very many? #BookEndsChat I don't keep track of my stats.

@WhtchplVampire Exclusives only hurt authors, imho. #BookEndsChat

@JBarberAuthor Stay tuned! I'm actually going to do a blog on this in May when I hit my 1 year anniversary. #ILoveStats #BookEndsChat

@authorronago You want an agent who can craft your career, so you want someone who knows the genres you want to write in. #BookEndsChat
