Christina Singh is Querying!
I’m about to catapult myself into the querying trenches this weekend! The last 8 months consisted of me spending A LOT of time perfecting UNDER THE CARPET after working with an incredible editor. This story is amazing and I’m so proud of it. Querying makes me anxious and I feel like throwing up but we’re doing it! 😮‍💨😅🤩 #querying #WritingCommunity

@kbowmanwriter Agree! I feel the same way. How do you go about finding a critique partner? I found one through X and she’s lovely.

🧵 2/2 Instead, I found writers at the same stage as me and we beta read for each other. It was the best thing I ever did, because we all learnt a lot from each other. If you can do that, I really recommend it! Plus, you can never have too many writer friends 🥰

The first two manuscripts I wrote, I paid for professional feedback/edits. I did not get an offer of rep, nor many requests. (In fact, my first got NONE 😭) The third manuscript I wrote, I did NOT pay for professional feedback/edits, but got multiple offers of rep. 🧵1/2

@RukminiThakore I've been querying this particular manuscript for a couple of months. I was agented for a while before that and parted with my agent. Before THAT, I'd queried for 3.5 years (with different manuscripts). It's definitely tough sometimes!

Things my agent has revealed through edits: 🖤My crutch words are just, still, even, always, &…hell? 😂 🖤Everyone glares. All the time. Which, with Remy being Remy kinda tracks. 🖤I have a real affinity for exclamation marks & I refuse to be ashamed. But I WILL edit them out.

Writers do you prefer to work with background noise or music or complete silence?

@BonamYoungBooks Thank you! I needed to hear just this today (I’m in the querying trenches, need I say more 😅) How was your journey from writer to published author? Did you go down the querying route? How was it?

@RukminiThakore It’s definitely a soft no, but also a sign they see real potential in your writing. Maybe the genre wasn’t a fit. Will you be sending them something new?

Hi #WritingCommunity #amquerying any ideas on what it means when an agent says they’re not interested in this particular manuscript but would love to read anything else I’m working on? Is it a genre misfit or something about my voice or sth else?

@betancourtlit Thank you! That’s somewhat encouraging cause I have received a similar message from two different agents ;) I don’t have a fully finished alternate manuscript but it is definitely motivating me to keep writing ✍️

@RukminiThakore It could be that they aren't confident they can place that particular book with a publisher, but they like your writing style.
