#Querytip Just read the most awesome sub a mystery, made me say OMG! #yesplease Crossing fingers that the story follows query goodness

#querytip If agent passes on story. Don't take it personally,we can't pick all. Not a good plan to respond to pass with a neg. comment

#querytip It's always a good idea to research/read books in the genre that you write.

#querytip for me, an automatic decline would be a query with just a link to website or Amazon.

#querytip most agencies have a "no attachment" policy. It's always best to check before hitting send.

#querytip Please remember to include your name and contact information! I will often get queries from authors with no name.
