Years ago, I had 17 requests for my thriller but no offers, so I focused on another project. Recently, I decided to go back & extensively revise the thriller. I LOVE how it’s turned out. I need to do one final read through and I’ll be #amquerying again! #WritingCommunity

After extensive revisions on an old manuscript, my first query is off! #amquerying #WritingCommunity

I love that #agents like Andie Smith and Jenna Satterthwaite give #amquerying folks a warning that they are closing for queries. Anyone else know of any other agents closing soon for (possibly) the rest of the year? #WritingCommunity

Does anyone else stress out about the formatting issues QT causes when you paste your pages because you don’t want agents to think you don’t know how to indent a paragraph? #amquerying #WritingCommunity

I sent a query last night and got a full request this morning!! #WritingCommunity #amquerying

It’s so exciting to see people I’ve followed for years find their home with an agent! Stick with it. It can happen for us too! #WritingCommunity #amquerying #writerscommunity

Sent out a handful of queries today! #amquerying #WritingCommunity

I was reading my #amquerying manuscript and caught a version of the line: “She released a breath she didn’t realize she was holding.” Remembering the complete aversion the #WritingCommunity has to that line, I quickly deleted it, shocked I’d snuck it in there in the first place!

It’s dark and stormy out—the perfect day to pull out my #amquerying manuscript. I poured my ❤️and soul into it. I love it, but every time I read it, I change a word here or there or add a sentence or two and am convinced it’s so much cleaner. I can’t help it! #WritingCommunity

I recently saw a video from an agent who recommended being active with the #WritingCommunity on all socials including TikTok. If any #amquerying #writers have a TikTok or IG account, please include it below. I’d love to follow you! Here’s mine! #WriterCommunity

After receiving 3 query rejections this week, I woke up this morning to my second request and I am so very grateful! Fingers crossed! #WritingCommunity #amquerying #WriterCommunity

I queried Agent X b/c she was closing for the year. After that, I reworked the MS & have had requests since. Agent X just sent a kind rejection saying she saw the potential and it was a “very close call for her.” Tip: don’t query too early 😬😥#WritingCommunity #amquerying

Three things no one should do here: 1. Tell an #amquerying #writer they should self-pub instead 2. DM the second someone follows you back, trying to sell your services. 3. Ask someone if they are published or the genre they write in when it’s in their bio #WritingCommunity

An agent disliked my query so much that she sent me two rejections in the span of one minute. I know she probably didn’t mean to reject me twice but ouch! Less than 5 minutes later, I got a form rejection on a full. Ouch, again. #WritingCommunity #amquerying #amwriting

So many rejections today! One was for a query on an old MS I sent a year ago, bringing today’s total to 5 (6 if you count the 2 rejections I got from the same agent a minute apart). Agents are cleaning out their inboxes! #WritingCommunity #amquerying

What are your filler words—the words you don’t realize you use unnecessarily as you write and your word count drops once you chop them? Mine are: just, that, really. I’m curious what yours are! #WritingCommunity #writer #amquerying #amrevising

So, you’re saying there’s a chance?! 🤣 #WritingCommunity #amquerying #Writer

I got a partial request!!! I got a partial request!!! #amquerying #WritingCommunity

I just got a rejection from a query I sent on March 19, 2024. Ummm, I closed that bad boy out awhile ago 🤣#WritingCommunity #amquerying

Me, querying an agent who has no record of ever responding to a query. Ever. #amquerying #WritingCommunity
