Q6 How do editors work with authors to bring their story to life? @normajeanesays #LxPChat

In short: communication. I read and respond to their writing: asking questions, making suggestions, and being their cheerleader. #LxPChat

Q4 Do you accept queries from agentless authors? @normajeanesays #LxPChat

I do accept queries from agent-less authors. With that said, the stronger the query, the more likely I'll keep reading. #LxPChat

Q3 Where do you look to find new talent? @normajeanesays #LxPChat
