Totally fine if you want to publish under a pen name, but can you please query with your real one? K, thanks. #querytip

#querytip The #DIS #disability #DV subs I'm receiving are nailing authenticity & voice, but focusing on the condition at expense of plot 1/3

Not all dialogue needs to be banter & sarcastic one-liners. People do speak to each other without all of that. #writingtip #querytip

Should You Make a Book Available for Preorder? 14 Authors Weigh In. bit.ly/2sN8tsJ by @CarlynRobrtson #writetip #pubtip

Even if @ATallOrder weren't my client, I'd still urge every writer to listen to this for the insights on publishing. #pubtip #writetip

This may be just me, but I really really don't like it when a query tells me how I'm going to feel about the book. #querytip

Move me. #querytip

Authors, if your manuscript is more than 100K words, seriously look at how to cut word count. #querytip

#querytip "I'll let the writing speak for itself" tells me you haven't bothered to try to describe your plot or come up with comps!

#querytip Most agents have a large workload. If you send a query, please be patient and don't follow up on Twitter to publicly ask. Bad form

#QueryTip = Loved a book? Keep a doc with title, author, publisher, agent and even editor. Great data for when it's time to query!

Working my way through May queries! (Still behind, catching up quick). #querystats so far are up on the blog: penandparsley.com/blog/2017/7/6/…

Please don't email an agent's personal, non-agency email. That's rude and a good way to simply be deleted #CLAqueries #querytip #amquerying

There's no need to include images in your query. 1) I care about pages 2) half the time they don't show up #CLAqueries #querytip #amquerying

If we have a previous query from you and you send in a new one, tell us! Multiple queries are confusing #CLAqueries #amquerying #querytip

"My novel cannot be placed into a genre" - this says you haven't researched or your story isn't clear #CLAqueries #querytip #amerquerying
