It's easy to miss overused pet words & phrases in your ms so have your beta readers be on the look out for them. #amediting #pubtip

#querytip - if you mass-email me a query without addressing me directly in note, I'll delete without replying... Just got a ton of these

A query is not an essay about your novel. If you're serious about your dreams put in the work to achieve them. Or you will fail. #querytip

HOW TO GET AN AGENT, my @WritersDigest webinar, is next Thurs! Instruction + a query critique: ow.ly/Mv6H9 #querytip

The best books are not written with any specific age group in mind. #pubtip

#PubTip = Website suggestion: have an Excerpt page like this: tiffanyreisz.com/storytime/have… @tiffanyreisz

#PubTip = Website suggestion: include an Events page like this: jasonhough.com/events/index.h… @JasonMHough

#PubTip = Website suggestion: include a media page like this: michaeljmartinez.net/media/ @mikemartinez72

I see a lot of NA characters named Bethany. #themoreyouknow #pubtip

#QueryTIp = Avoid saying, "heroine was surprised when..." in query letter. Show the hook, not the response to the hook.

"Dear Agent:" is an automatic delete for me. #querytip

When querying an agent, please make sure your work fits with their list. Stop wasting our time. #querytip

I so appreciate it when a query links the author's twitter handle/website. Makes it easy for me to find out more if I'm intrigued! #querytip
