Good Submission Etiquette: relentlesswriters.blogspot.com/2015/09/curb-y… via @LisaAbellera #pubtip #querytip #writetip #askagent Some great advice here!

If you intentionally use omniscient POV, tell me in your query. Otherwise, I might think you don't understand POV. #querytip

#querytip Important to know genre/category . I have said before- 1 story cannot be all age grps and genre categories wrapped into one.

*writes the redundant phrase "fiction novel" on a piece of paper* *throws that paper in the trash* *lights the trash can on fire* #querytip

Rejection should not be the end. #querytip #subtip http://t.co/9s8IrjIxE3

Don't send your query return receipt requested or certified mail. It's weird. #querytip

Query ONE agent of the agency, the one you believe to be the best fit. #querytip

#querytip sample pages need to be pasted into the body of your email. I will not open attachments. #amquerying #amediting #amwriting

Querying more than one agent at the same agency at the same time is a great way to end up in everyone's rejection pile. #querytip

"The idea came to me in a dream/ rage induced blackout/ hallucinogenic dive into consciousness." #Querytip this is not the time to share.

Maybe your ms. does appeal to young & old, men & women, cats & dogs, but best let me figure that out for myself. #querytip

#querytip label your files with title & author last name. "synopsis" gets confusing when I have 5 of them on my Kindle.

Beware the written word. #agenting #querytip #writetip

I genuinely wish I could read/respond faster, but the universe keeps rudely refusing to give me extra hours in the day. #querytip

Not being i"n the know" on celebrities comparing your protagonist to an actor isn't the best way to grab my attention #querytip

Just a reminder that I will not open any unsolicited attachments! So please don't ruin your query's chances by attaching it #querytip

+You have no idea how helpful it is to open a ms and remember which one it is immediately w/out having to search query inbox. #querytip

Another formatting #querytip (kinda): When I request ms (full or partial) I ask for author to include query letter as first page of ms. +

These might seem like obvious #querytip's that everyone already knows, but you'd be surprised by how many writers don't do these things.

And make sure to include your contact info in the manuscript document itself. Not just author name and book title. #querytip
