#Writers beware! The evils of query services from @CorvisieroLit Agent @SarahNego: sarahnegovetich.com/2014/09/agency… #querytips #pubtip

Realize this when you go to self-pub: You have a skill set. It does not include everything. Ask for help when needed. #pubtip

My interest is piqued when I peek at the settlement on top of the mountain peak #grammar #pubtip

To be honest, we also get asked, "am I too old to publish?" To reiterate - we accept queries from authors of all ages! #pubtip

YES! We accept queries from authors of ALL ages (if the author is under 18 we have a guardian + agency + author agreement to sign) #pubtip

Tweeps, I have a brandspankingnew Publisher's Marketplace page. Full of of intel like #query info, #pubtip and more. bit.ly/1pp7plO

I want the author to take what I’ve shown them and use it to correct the same mistakes elsewhere. It concerns me if they don’t. #pubtip 2/2

I look for growth after an R&R. If I’ve edited typos & grammar, I want those mistakes fixed in the revised manuscript. #pubtip 1/2

So thrilled to be doing another @WritersDigest webinar! Oct 16 "How to get an agent" bit.ly/XibDoo #pubtip

Tips on submitting your full manuscript by @devourerofbooks at @ForewordLit ow.ly/Bprh3 #pubtip

I'm 100% for the validity of self-publishing, but some of these covers, you guys. Yow. This is why I let someone else fix my car. #pubtip

Agents aren't amused at this trick, either: Via @nprnews: BP Lawyers Use Old-School Trick; Judge Not Amused n.pr/1uFEDm8 #pubtip

If you personalize a query, double check to make sure it's personalized to the right person. #pubtip

Got a submission for a "YA/NA." Pick one. They're different stories, characters, issues (and most often, publishers). #pubtip

If your promotion plan = Myspace and a company that has since been bought & renamed, I won't hold out hope for those efforts. #pubtip

Everyone’s publishing journey is different. Don’t compare yourself to other writers. Focus on writing your best books. #pubtip #sytycw14

That said, "I am the author of [title of the ms your querying]" is a fine way to start a query. #pubtip #queries

Dear Queriers: No need to say "I'm the author of [name of the ms your querying]" in your query bio. We...know. XOXO #pubtip #queries
