How to find an agent by genre? I recommend agentquery.com #pubtip #queries

A novel Q w/more stats on the potential readership than info on the story doesn't work for me. Tell me something I don't know-STORY! #pubtip

Please don't give up. Talk to me, fight with me, get mad and come back with solutions. But don't give up. It breaks my heart. #pubtip

A new agent = easier to get bc 0 clients occupy her time. She wants you to fix that & fill an empty list. #Pubtip ow.ly/vZAQo

Writers - it's not ok to borrow elements (characters, etc.)from other writers' works without permission. #pubtip

#PubTip - If you part ways with an agent to look for new representation for a manuscript that agent already shopped, please disclose this.

"In a few days, you'll receive the next in a series of e-queries to introduce my book…" Don't do this. One query letter, please. #pubtip

Example of a GREAT first sentence: "Dear Sara, I'd like to submit my completed 80,000 word young adult novel." #queries #pubtip

"Stop what you are doing and request my book - it's the best thing you'll see all year." = don't do this. Just sayin' #agenting #pubtip

Remember, even though there's a lot of 'no' in publishing it only takes one 'yes.' #pubtip

Not the best idea to include in your Q that you've had no interest on other Qs sent.
#pubtip

"I'm not really sure how to do this and this query probably isn't good..." = don't open any query like this. #agenting #queries #pubtip

When sending pages in a Q, don't send a scene in the middle of the ms. Send the opening pages. #pubtip

Friendly reminder: always hit Accept --> Accept All Changes before sending your work. Or we may just see your CP's edits. :) #PubTip

Please don't send queries via Google Drive. #pubtip
