I talk aloud to my #authors as I #edit and write #queries. Strangely, they only get back to me remotely, via email. 😉

All #queries that I intended to send are sent. Waiting for a critique from an agent for a few of my pages. Started #writing my next novel. This process has been grueling and getting “no’s” has been more difficult than anticipated. This week, I will be grounding: gym, meditation, outside time etc. ✨

#QueerWriters

I got most of what I wanted done this week. Finally stopped picking at The Night of Fallen Gods, it’s done!

Read through what I’d done so far of Book 2, just have to do a minor rewrite and then I can keep pushing forward on that.

Also submitted 3 new #Queries !

#WritingCommunity

And I'm spent - five #queries sent in one day, each a gossamer wonder, pieced together with tiny tweezers and a jeweler's loupe, trembling in the faintest breeze. Oh, gatekeepers of culture, I beseech thee, grant me an audience!

#MSWL Day! Check out my wishlist HERE: serarivers.com/mswl/ I have a lot of wishes on my list, but I'm most eager for #subversive #horror in the vein of Jordan Peele and work by marginalized creators! I'm open to adult #fiction #queries 1st 7 days each month

Hello, writers. I’ll be reopening submissions beginning the first week of March for adult fiction and nonfiction. I will be giving total priority to diverse voices; however, writers of all backgrounds are welcome to submit. #MSWL #queries #nonfiction #fiction

Every Thursday I talk about comp reading first.

A comparable is a novel with similar characteristics to your own.

A comparable was written and published in the last 3 years.

A comparable is NOT A FILM.

A comparable should be selling well today!

I just received a response to a query I sent 6 months ago.

Lit agent said they went back & forth with their decision. It was a “positive rejection.”

After my ms returns from an editor I hired, I’ll revise & start all over again. #Queries

Two rejections in a week. At least the last one was personal. Why do I manage to write what's hard to sell? Okay, pitty party over.
#amwriting #middlegrade #novel-in-verse #queries

Got a "champagne rejection"? That's agent-speak for "you're SO close."

When they call your work "fascinating," "ambitious," and "electrifying" but still pass, it's timing/fit—not your talent.

Keep going. #WritingCommunity #Queries

Quick reminder: I'll be teaching two #Masterclasses in about 12 days at @ltuesymposium.bsky.social 2026! Tickets are still available - $45 for 4 hours of awesomeness (if I do say so myself). ltue.net/jason-kristo... #booksky #indieauthor #smallpress #ampublishing #amwriting #queries #ideageneration

1. New authors spamming #books and #queries don't make sense. Audience is everything.

When I published my first #fantasy book, I had three best-selling Urban Paranormal / dark fantasy clients offer to give me shout-outs in their newsletters. Of course I said yes. That's amazing...

Wishing you a great #writing / #revising day and weekend!

#writingcommunity #querying #literaryagent

A new #query trend has emerged this December 2025:

Picture books about and/or starring #cats

(I received 5+ in a row from authors throughout the country)

Logging Sucks - Your Logs Are Lying To You Why traditional logging fails and how wide events can fix your observability

Very much looking forward to this. I'll be presenting recent @odihq.bsky.social work to build essential benchmarking infrastructure that helps public authorities assess how well existing #generative #ai models answer #citizen #queries about #government #services.

Another #JMSQueryBoxTrend that fascinates me:

Characters with the first name, Nova

I find it strange that I’m seeing so many Novas, regardless of category.

Okay, back to my query box. I am having a wonderful time #reading #queries.

Thank you for sharing your work with me!

#StarlingLit

Reading #queries this week. (I go in chronological order, so if I have yet to respond to you, it means I’m still considering your project.)

Another #JMSQueryBoxTrend:

Stories comped to Lord of the Rings.

Not sure if I’m the best fit, but I’m open to the possibility.

Best of luck! #StarlingLit

Yet another #JMSQueryBoxTrend…

(I’ve devoted the entire day today to #reading #queries)

Vampires.

With so many vampire novels already in the market, I would hope to find something that feels completely different from the rest. A tall order, I know, but not impossible.

Good luck!

Another #JMSQueryBoxTrend this fine December day:

Projects compared to Dan Brown thrillers.

I do like mystery novels that fit together like puzzles with lots of intriguing clues.

#amreading #queries #StarlingLit

Reading #queries and seeing another trend:

Titles with the word “Dark”

I like it!
