11. YA Contemporary. I have read this query letter before, and it doesn't acknowledge that or mention any changes to the story. #100Queries

10. YA. All the comps are middle grade books, and the the word count is more novella than novel. #100Queries

Fiction should always be a finished manuscript. You can query a nonfiction project with a proposal. #100Queries twitter.com/ButerflySamura…

9. Chapter Book. Topic isn’t my thing. I also get the feeling it’s very gender stereotype-y, which also isn’t my thing. #100Queries

8. Thriller. I don’t rep thriller (adult, anyway – I'd be ok with a YA thriller). #100Queries

7. YA. The pitch sounds more adult though. I’m not sure why so many queries today are messing up or ignoring categories/genres. #100Queries

I'm flexible with the word count for speculative fiction (scifi, fantasy, maybe even magical realism). #100Queries twitter.com/RaptorEatsBaby…

6. YA. Previously self-published, low sales. Not much I can do here… Would have better success querying a new project. #100Queries

5. Middle Grade. Except it doesn’t sound like middle grade at all. The pitch doesn’t even sound like a story, just a concept. #100Queries

Great rhythm. Whimsical story. Non-rhyming text. Unusual characters. Geeky topics. Author/illustrators. #100Queries twitter.com/Coffee_Is_love…

I can't, sorry! It's not my query letter to share. #100Queries twitter.com/vazzanalinda/s…

4. Literary Fiction. Again, not a topic that interests me (and the word count is well above 100k, which honestly scares me). #100Queries

3. Picture Book. Just not a topic that interests me, but otherwise a great query. #100Queries

2. YA horror. The pitch sounds like something I've read too many times before. #100Queries

1. No mention of the category or genre, and the pitch definitely doesn't make it clear... #100Queries

Don't read into it too much, just use the tips to improve your own query. I'll answer as many questions as I can this afternoon. #100Queries

And remember: any #querytip is often not the only reason I am passing or requesting material. I'm sharing what I can. #100Queries

You're welcome to ask questions, but I won't reveal any info that could possibly identify an author or MS title. #100Queries

20 each day, today until Friday. Actual query letters. I won't mention any spam, check-in emails, etc. #100Queries

Ok, let's do this. The week of #100Queries on Twitter starts now! I'm sharing details on 100 queries, all addressed specifically to me.
