@HFLane_writing I have an unpublished contemp romance i'm currently querying with on page sex, but a self pub fantasy trilogy with higher heat and a good sales record. Open to previously published or looking specifically for unpub? Hope you find what you're searching for!

@mollyketch13 What do big gaps between query replies generally mean on QT? I'm in so many gaps of no responses between big stretches of red sad faces and always wonder if they skipped a chunk somehow?

[megan shade @meganshadeauth]

@HFLane_writing By high heat do we mean erotica, or on page sex scenes? How spicy are we talking here? 😂

[megan shade @meganshadeauth]

Dying to know why agents QT timelines have big chunks of unanswered in between big chunks of sad faces. Are they really maybe piles? Does their inbox organize things differently?

[megan shade @meganshadeauth]

@careyfblankensh I mean.... that's pretty dang scary!

[hannah m teachout @hmteachout]

alrighty, closed to full manuscripts for the rest of the year, but I've still got space for submission materials and partial reviews. Let's assess and polish those queries and pages!
help a gal out and share?

@Amandabadillo25 😭😭😭 so hard! I hope he feels better! ❤️❤️❤️

[megan shade @meganshadeauth]

My goal in life is to make enough of a name for myself in the romance space that I can weasel my way into being critique partners with Carley Fortune and Julie Soto.

@C_H_Armstrong I VIVIDLY remember going to my school library at 8 and the librarian not letting me check out the second Harry Potter book. My parents called the school AND took me to buy it that night. School let me check out anything after that call 😂

[megan shade @meganshadeauth]

@aecwordsmith 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[megan shade @meganshadeauth]

@averyt_214 I know nothing about this book but this line and I need to read it 😂

[megan shade @meganshadeauth]

The BEST decision I've made in my querying journey is a critique with Hannah!!

[hannah m teachout @hmteachout]
