Is it just me or don't these stamps also sound like reactions to online dating profiles? #agentlife #slushpile twitter.com/JaneFriedman/s…

"Dear Kirsten Wolflit literary." Swing and a miss. #slushpile

"Dear Sir/Madam," makes my teeth start grinding. #slushpile

Van Morrison in background while reading submissions. Makes me more accepting than if it was say, Black Sabbath (who I also love) #slushpile

Be careful when spelling "thorough." See a lot of "She was very through in her search."#writetip #slushpile

Ah! Three page query in all blue font! My eyes! My eyes! #slushpile http://t.co/Mckgj54dML

Happy hump day. When I see a submission I like I'm like this guy:

Things that make me happy: finding graphic novel #submissions in the #slushpile.

Around twenty percent of submissions are well written. Acceptance or rejection are subjective at that point. #askagent #slushpile

Catching up on #slushpile reading-seems like I've saved all the #nonfiction mss for today. #amreading #amediting

Number 1 grammar error - it's vs its. Know the dif: data.grammarbook.com/blog/pronouns/… via @GrammarBook #writetip #slushpile

Well that's one way to pitch: Woman Sues Halle Berry and Amanda Bynes So She Can Pitch a Script jezebel.com/woman-sues-hal… #slushpile

Watch out for "then" versus "than" in your submissions. Take the then/than quiz: waikato.ac.nz/students/stude… #writetip #slushpile

Query actually had "unfinished manuscript" in subject line. Sigh. #slushpile http://t.co/DxKzl4RGw1

It's amazing how many submissions start with a dream. It's not an instant rejection, but it doesn't help. #writetip #slushpile #ameditor
