Every once in a while I read this. Just to remind myself: pixar-animation.weebly.com/pixars-rules.h… … … #pubtip

#Pubtip: I'm Tricia w/ @FuseLiterary.This is me when I get a query w/ a diff agent's name on it. #srsly #iwant2luvu

Rejections: subjective. Can be editor or agent's personal dislike of plot point, storyline, or character. Keep trying.#notpersonal #pubtip

Humor is the most difficult genre to write because it is so subjective. #pubtip

You guys, it's just a fact that I love earnest fiction. #queries #pubtip

Did you know that a character with a destiny to fulfill is part of the Chosen One trope? I'm not a fan of either #pubtip

No one likes to write synopses but it’s a piece of the puzzle that really help me decide whether I want to read more of work or not. #pubtip

Simple #PubTip #Reminder = have questions about your publishing contract? Ask your agent! We're here to help! :)

NB: not the way to format a query letter. (I was one of 277 agents cc'ed...) #pubtip

Always make sure your research sources are reliable. Check the website's/publisher's legitimacy (academic? crowd-sourced?). #pubtip

For many of us, the synopsis is what we use to decide if we’re going to request to see more. #CLABootCamp #pubtip

Make sure your book has a strong hook. #pubtip #CLABootCamp

Include your Twitter handle (with the @) in your query. This way, if you say something cool online, I can search for your query. #pubtip

A strong plot will help you avoid a manuscript with a sagging middle. Make sure each scene advances the plot in some way. #pubtip

PSA: Bemused = confused. IT DOES NOT MEAN AMUSED. DO NOT USE IT TO MEAN AMUSED. #pubtip #writetip
