Authors I beg of you: PLEASE research before you query. Sending your secular novel to a Christian publisher is a waste of time for both of you. And please, PLEASE follow sub guidelines. If a pub asks for first 10 pages, include the first 10 pages. Not random chapters. #querytip
Editor
If one editor at @anaiahpress rejects, please do not query another editor. A no from one is a no from all. #querytip

Authors,
Please know the difference between a publisher & an agent. Also, don't query w/ a book that's currently self-pubbed. Thx! #querytip

Got a query addressed to: Dear Gentleman 🤔Um Did you look at the "about us" page on our website? I'm guessing not. #DoYourResearch #querytip

Sending a query to an acquiring editor w/ the words "I'm seeking representation" will result in an unanswered query. #querytip Do Research!

Editor
"Attached is query letter, brief synopsis, & first chapters" is NOT the correct way to query anyone. #querytip
Editor
If you intentionally use omniscient POV, tell me in your query. Otherwise, I might think you don't understand POV. #querytip
Editor
The personalization on this submission made me LOL. Not required, but great way to get my attention & make me remember you. #querytip
Editor
Also, authors, while I like learning about you, your query is for your book pitch & creds, not your inspiration for writing. #querytip
Editor
AUTHORS: PLEASE, please follow submission guidelines and do not query until your MS is 100% complete. #querytip
