Ms. Cauliflower didn’t show up for this group picture because she refuses to accept her veggie nature (keeps insisting she’s a flower) and Mr. Broccoli doesn’t like to have his picture taken. What other veggie friends am I missing? 🍅🥕🧅🫑🥔

Writing a great query is a separate skill from writing a great book, so my best tip is to study successful queries. www.query101.blog/about is a great resource (and includes the query that landed my first agent). There's also queryshark.blogspot.com by the late, great agent Janet Reid. #KidLitChat
TOPIC: Let's talk... queries! What are your best tips for writing it great query? What do you avoid or, if you receive queries, reallllly dislike seeing? And... who and what are you querying these days? #kidlitchat
