Me sending you a form rejection does not mean, "Please send this same query with a different title as soon as you receive this." #querytip

#querytip - put book title in the email subject line. I quickly scan my Q inbox when I log in first thing. Intriguing titles catch my eye!

Don't spend time telling me that your book has no vampires. I care about what's there, not what isn't. #querytip

Don't know which blog/twitter/website said I'm interested in SciFi but they were misinformed. #querytip

Pet peeve #1=fiction novel. By definition, a novel is fictitious. #querytip

Writers, if I pass on your query, please don't respond with a query for another book. #querytip

I don't know about you but I've been loving @Michrichter1's #500queries. Writers, check this out. #querytip

In fact, don’t tell us ANYTHING! SHOW us everything. Even your word count and genre. Show us. Don’t tell us. #querytip #onrepeat

If you’re querying a YA or MG or a Children’s novel, please don't tell us what lesson readers will learn from it. Just don’t. #querytip

It's not appropriate to query agents from your day job's email. Get a free personal email account. #querytip

Keep it positive in your query. We'll feel more positive about you. Trashing other books and/or yourself is counter-productive! #querytip

If you're querying for a young adult manuscript make sure to mention your protagonist's age! #querytip

#querytip Please double space your manuscripts.... please.....

Spamming agents and editors on Facebook, let alone their personal pages, is a big NO-NO! #querytip

#querytip - check out the agent's website before you query! And speaking of, we have a great new one: browneandmiller.com

In a little less than 4 weeks I'll be in #Seattle at the #PNWA conference. Local authors, come pitch me! #amwriting #amrevising #querytip

Adding me on Google+ or LinkedIn or Facebook when we've never met=not really a good idea #querytip #agent

Keep complaining about agents/editors off social media, at least about respectable ones. People talk and nothing is private. #querytip

reminder to querying authors: You should be querying w/ current work. If you're asking for rep. based on a previous novel ... no #querytip

#querytip One typo in a query- understandable. Multiple? Not looking good... Proofread your queries if you want to make a good impression!
