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

@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

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
