I'll always go by the pages! Queries can be tricky. I plan on helping my mentee with their query, synopsis, and manuscript as they prepare for the query trenches.
#AMMR9 #AuthorMentorMatch #AskAMM #AskMentor
Let's say the query is garbage (hypothetically 😬) but you like the pages -- will the query tip you into passing on the project or is that another thing you're willing to help hone? #ammr9 #askmentor #askingforafriend
@writtenbysky It's tough!! I came through R4, which had a helpfully small number of MG fantasy mentors. But seconding Cristin: go with your gut, and know that we 100% share subs once all subbed-to mentors have passed. The MG crew is fabulous; you can't go wrong! #askamm
Excellent q! Craft books that have taught me to be a better writer include Story Engineering by Larry Brooks, The Emotional Craft of Fiction by Donald Maass, The Magic Words by Cheryl Klein, & Story Genius by Lisa Cron. 1/2

I read every query & first pages. Then I read the partials of subs that hooked me & the synopsis (I like knowing if the full story/plot holds up). From there I'll request the full & read the app q's to make sure we'd be a good fit :)

Hi #MG mentors! For any who have mentored in the past, what was your process for picking? And how many fulls did you request? #askmentor #AMMR9
I adore steampunk!!! One of my favorite comic series is GIRL GENIUS, so anything with airships & adventure will catch my attention 😍
#AMMR9 #AuthorMentorMatch #AskAMM #AskMentor
I plan to offer feedback for fulls I requested (if those mss weren't chosen by another mentor!)
#AMMR9 #AuthorMentorMatch #AskAMM #AskMentor
Will you be able to offer any comments/feedback on a full if you request it?? (And decide not to choose that person as a mentee) #AskMentor
I might do #AMMTeasers but will keep them vague and positive, so if you are a hopeful and teasers are too stressful (I've been there!) feel free to mute the tag. For R8 I did craft-related threads & plan to do the same this round

I’ve been seeing a lot of talk about #ammteasers (and Mary’s poll)- any #MG mentors planning to post those? #askmentor #AMMR9
Going with "Both" for my answer to this q! I love books with humor & books which explore deep emotions & leave me sobbing. Most of all I love to be surprised :)
#AMMR9 #AuthorMentorMatch #AskAMM #AskMentor
For #MG mentors - would you rather mentor a middle grade that makes you laugh or cry? #AMMR9 #askmentor
Oooh, great question! For #MG subs, I'd love to see anything comped to the books I mention in my MSWL & favorites list, and of course anything comped to ✨Studio Ghibli ✨

#AskMentor what are some comps you’d be particularly excited to see? 👀
Starting out #AskMentor with this very important q! Meet Haku, my domestic dragon.

Hello #AMM hopefuls! I'm digging into #AskMentor questions now & will be checking periodically throughout the day. If you have questions specifically for me, feel free to @ me!
#AuthorMentorMatch #AskAMM #AMMR9 #WritingCommunity
#AMM #MG hopefuls! I'll be on the #AskMentor tag tomorrow (Jan 11th) throughout the day to answer questions about #AuthorMentorMatch. So excited for the sub window to open!🤩
#AskAMM #AMMR9 #WritingCommunity #AmWriting
Reminder - tomorrow mentors will be on Twitter browsing the #AskMentor hashtag for one last event before submissions open! The event goes all day (7AM-7PM) & mentors will be popping in throughout the day.
As always, you can reply to this tweet and admins will chime in too.
@kassielamro Write as much as you feel like you need to in order to answer the questions well- no specific word count! #askAMM
I will be able to offer feedback to anyone I personally request a full from who does not get chosen by another mentor. I've gotten close to 80 subs both times & I typically request 2-3 fulls + peek at a few other fulls that get requested by other mentors. #askmentor #askamm
Happy Sunday #authormentormatch!
I like to leave a thread before submissions open, hopefully to encourage you all as you do the brave thing of sending your story out there.
So buckle up, cause here we go!
#askamm #askmentor #ammparty
I'm working on my application questions for Author Mentor Match right now. What's the expected word count for each of my answers?
#AskAMM #writingcommunity #mgnarwhals
Hey #AuthorMentorMatch
We'll be live with some MG mentors on Instagram tonight! Stop by and say hello/ask any questions you might have. You can also leave a question in the AMA box on our stories & we'll answer it tonight.
New YouTube video up on the AMM channel!

#AskMentor #AskAMM Can mentors see which other mentors an applicant subbed to? Are you all gossiping about us? lol
