I've received a few queries now where writers are apologizing for querying/ worried it's not an appropriate time to reach out. I appreciate the thought but there is 100% no need. I'm open to queries & really looking forward to reading your projects. Keep 'em coming! #querytip

Today @BookEndsJessica took to YouTube to give her best Tips for Writing During Tough Times. youtu.be/41fKFolkY9U via @YouTube #WriteTip #PubTip #QueryTip

Here's a secret: sometimes I search for #mswl in my query box to see if someone mentions submitting to me because of a my wish list. #querytip #amquerying

#querytip you want agents to be feeling positive and receptive to your query when it lands in your inbox so maybe now is not your moment! we're all too anxious rn!

also I'm still closed to submissions. thanks.

Nonfiction authors--please get in the habit of adding a good bio and platform to your query. Platform is critical in considering NF, including it matters. #querytip More on platform here: youtu.be/2ZnV8BDjaPk

How to Fix Your Word Count youtu.be/6Z-_R6FuA44 via @YouTube #WriteTip #QueryTip

Hi! This is a #querytip to check your junk mail once in a while. I've sent a couple of full requests out, and it's been a few days with no response, which is fine! I just want to make sure people are not missing something. 😜 #amquerying

Random #querytip—I’m seeing a LOT of King Arthur retellings in my subs lately. I know a LOT of agents love those, but I was always more a Greek mythology fan

I am open to queries! I am looking for shorter works of fiction, though, so be sure to check out my post on it. enigmaticeditor.blogspot.com/2020/03/what-i… #querytip #amwriting #A #PNR #UF

I love, love it when authors reference my profile when they query me. It means so much to me that you all took the time to get to know me. Thank you! #amquerying #querytip

To help brighten up 2020, I'm open for submissions. But I'm looking for something a bit different than I have been in the past. Details here: enigmaticeditor.blogspot.com/p/submit.html #querytip #amwriting #writersroad

How Long Should My Book Be? (Word Counts!) youtu.be/vUIDgekFqVE via @YouTube #QueryTip #PubTip #WordCounts

#querytip Listing 3+ genres or suggesting your book cannot be defined by a single genre shows either 1) inexperience, or 2) unfamiliarity with the market (or truthfully sometimes 3 plain old arrogance 😂)... Better way to convey your intent = The Almighty Comp Title 🙌

Hi, hi, when you query me (or anyone), please do not talk about my (or anyone's) looks because, wow, that is gross and not appropriate. #querytip

This is an awesome interview, @agentsaba!!

Attention writing authors, feast your eye holes on this! 👇🏽 #querytip #pubtip #pocinpub

Your query: "You've been to X location, right? Riiiight?"

Me: "No. I haven't."

Your query: "...... welllllll let me tell you about my book that takes place in this place you've been!"

Just be! Yourself! No dancing required, loves. #querytip #pubtip

PSA: I am currently closed to all unsolicited queries. I will announce when I re-open both here and on my website. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. All solicited and previously received queries will be responded to! #querytip #querying

#querytip thread: Genre and age range do not count as personalization! Personalization isn't just to prove that you've researched an agent; it's also to MAKE YOUR QUERY STAND OUT. Be as specific and targeted as possible.

#querytip - if you email saying your "friend" said you should get in touch with a specific agent but don't say who your friend is, it's ... not actually a referral. And maybe I don't think your friend is real. #subtip Just be yourself, pals, it's enough.
