#querytip Please make our job a little easier and remember to double space your submissions....

Assuming your first language is English, your query should not read like those spam emails from Nigeria, Bratislava, Russia, etc. #querytip

In order to write well (including how to write a proper query) you need to understand sentence structure and grammar. #querytip

There’s no need to introduce yourself in a query. That’s what the bio is for, not to mention it takes up important “pitch” space. #querytip
