@_ashleedani May I send two separate queries: a chapter book and an MG?

[Kim Harnes @kimharnes]

My QueryTracker subscription renewed today. I am not taking it as a failure of one more year of not getting an agent. I am taking it as one more opportunity to try.

Never give up, writer friends! They don't call it the #querytrenches for nothing!!

I know the worst thing you can possibly do is write the sequel to a novel that hasn’t got a book deal (let alone a novel you’re currently querying) but, like, I REALLY want to

(i may or may not have already written 25k words of it last year and forced myself to stop back then)

[Deion @das_write954]

@Dear_Rhian Go for it! I’m outlining my sequel rn and it’s bringing all the joy and anxiety the first one brought. Sometimes you just have to write for you

[Alyssa Matesic @AlyssaMatesic]

Just about every author who has been through the query trenches will agree: frankly, it sucks.

So here are seven querying hacks to make the process a LOT smoother — and give you back hours of precious time that you could be spending on your next story.

How do you combat imposter syndrome? What makes you start a new manuscript when the others are shelved? #WritingCommunity

@struutinsky I have a working title before and throughout the process it might change

Discovering a two week old query rejection from the whole agency is the perfect cherry on top to my apartment hunting madness 😃👍🏾

[Deion @das_write954]

@haleypatricia_ Best of luck. It’s a long road ahead but just know everyone goes through it and/or is experiencing it rn 🤞🏾
