Vanessa @vanessaepeay

I've seen writers who have more than one agent. How does that work out? #askktlit

They may have had diff agents at diff times, or diff agents for film and book, but multiple agents concurrently for books is rare. #AskKTLit

kaycee!! @crybabykaycee

Any advice for an aspiring author under the age of 18 looking to get an agent? #AskKTLit

Know, however, that's there no curve for age. Your manuscript needs to be as good as adult writers' work to be published. #AskKTLit

Vanessa @vanessaepeay

Hypothetically if I have 3 fulls with agents and one gets back with offer. How do I inform the agent? #AskKTLit

Email the other agents considering the book that you have an offer of representation, &ask them to get back to you w/in set time. #AskKTLit

Kristi Adams @KAdamsBooks

What are subsidiary rights? And are there typical/common traits of ms's that tend to go to auction? #AskKTLit

SubRts can be a nice additional stream of income, but they usually assume a good deal with a publisher first, and a nice success. #AskKTLit

Advice for those w/writing interests in several genres? Could someone be successful in multiple genres? #AskKTLit

You've got to query on one book at a time, but ideally, you're querying agents who rep all the genres you write. #AskKTLit

@HannahFergesen @DaphneUn Do they have the decency to use your name?

Nope, those are usually the "Dear Agent" queries. That's often how you can tell. #AskKTLit

B. Crain @BCrainbooks

#AskKTLit What is the cardinal sin of query letters? Thank you.

For me, it's being cc'ed on the same query to multiple agents. Every other query I answer, those get trashed unread. #AskKTLit

Kirtida Gautam @KirtidaGautam

@DaphneUn Can I re-requery another agent in the same agency after major revisions?

You can! We don't usually compare notes at the query stage, although we do discuss manuscripts under submission. #AskKTLit
