I should NOT have to explain myself. The premise and/or the writing wasn't for me. You should have an agent that CLICKS from the start.

The perfect query is a few paragraphs (3-4) and one page *only*. #querytip

If an agent rejected the first book in a series, chances are they won't take on the second or third book.

Don't ask an agent to refer you to another agent if they pass. Do your own research. If you can't do it why should we? Just sayin' #querytip

A.J. Benson @ajbenso

@TheTobiasAgency How many agents would you recommend querying at one time? #query tips
Replying to @ajbenso

4-6. That way if there's consensus your ms needs work in some area you can tweak it without blowing through every agent. #querytip

@TheTobiasAgency @CyaniBlack While we're on the topic, are repeat queries after a year and significant changes advisable?
Replying to @ThunderJon

If there's been major overhauls - so it's basically a new book - then it's fine. Otherwise you get 1 shot. #querytip

Keep your query concise. One page maximum. 3-4 paragraphs is the perfect length. #querytip

@TheTobiasAgency @LaneHeymont That's also a great place to track if an agent's response was positive, negative, friendly or not so much.

Keep a spreadsheet of agents you query so you don't query them again should they pass. Or query them four times in 5 minutes #querytip
