Wednesday’s are #queryparty days at @CorvisieroLit and tonight I found a common thread among works I liked but ultimately passed on so, it’s time for ... a #amquerying thread.
Off to spend time with the family after a great #queryparty with #TeamCorvisiero.
Back to the #QueryParty with more #CLAQueries now that I’ve got yummy food in my belly!
I think the best thing about the #CLAQueries #queryparty is hearing @SarahNego say “huh” in various ways!
Getting ready to start a #CLAQueries party! Let’s see what we find today! #queryparty
Remember that sometimes, it’s not you or your #query. Sometimes the agent and the work don’t connect. It happens. Keep #querying #Queryparty
Not including sample pages because a table of contents will do does not work for a genre fiction #query. #Pass #Queryparty #TeamCorvisiero
Don’t tell me what your book will do to the market. #queryfail #queryparty #TeamCorvisiero
I’m not a fan of passive voice. If your sample pages are riddled with it, you’re encouraging me to reject it. #queryparty #TeamCorvisiero
Know the difference between erotica and straight up porn. #queryparty #TeamCorvisiero
I'm more of a Type A- personality. #Querytip #queryparty
#querytip You don't need to tell me that you're going to introduce me to your work. Just do it. #queryparty
#QueryTip all agents care. You don't need to start your query with "seeking for agent who cares". #queryparty
Ok, switching to the big desktop computer for this #queryparty w/ #TeamCorvisiero
You had me at Lego Fetish! #queryparty RT @SarahNego: Apparently my name sounds a lot like Lego Fetish. I love it. :)
Yes, don't be that guy, folks! RT @Nik_Vukoja: @mcorvisiero @SarahNego So, basically its the Seinfeld of query letters? #QueryParty
RT @mcorvisiero: #QueryParty Tip #10 When pitching your book, pitch your book, & give us the hook. Don't summarize. Save it for the synop.
#Queries I've received through 1/16/2013 have been responded to. #queryparty
#queryparty continues with the lovely gals of @CorvisieroLit as I sign off for the night.
No your book is not for everyone. Who are your readers? What is the genre? I can't tell from this query. #queryparty
Apparently it's Prologue week! #QueryParty
Not exactly. If story is good, may pick up. RT @HARLEMDiva4real: I'm I less likely to get picked up by an agent with a novella?#QueryParty
A synopsis is not a query. Please remember to differentiate between the two. #queryparty
So true! RT @Authorsbdonaghy: #queryparty Sometimes it comes down to agent preference
Oh my! A GLBT gender-bending erotic romance set in 1950s New Orleans! Hell yeah I'm requesting! #queryparty
"Beastiality killed the Google Hangout" - quotes from #queryparty
If we can't figure out what your book is about based on your query, we're going to pass on it. #queryparty
I like when work starts with action but this one is slowed down with barrage of action tags. Pass #queryparty
Male/Male romance #GLBT RT @RonSmithbooks: #queryparty What's an MM query?
@PEART10 Go for it! #queryparty #MMRomance
