Here's a thread of the top issues I saw will doing #10Queries. These are opportunities for improvement that I noticed in multiple subs, so consider whether your query letter could use revisions in these areas, too! #RevPit

If America hasn't broken your heart, you haven't loved her enough.

In true #unhingedpit fashion, I'm like 3 days late. Have you ever wondered what would happen if Dr. Kevorkian was a super-cute 20-something-year-old woman who had to choose between her professional and personal loyalties?

Nope? I'm the only one spending hours and hours puzzling out that question?

I can’t help but laugh/cry when I see marketing plans from publishers still touting how they will “post on X accounts” — like can you do me a favor and NOT?

I know it is hard to pivot but you NEED TO PIVOT. Please I am BEGGING you to leave that god-forsaken platform and move here P L E A S E

This is so fun! I'm Steph. I am currently working on a romance novel. Outside of work, writing, and reading, my time is pretty much 100% toddler-chasing (think spider-man trivia, Lego building, and a lot of snack fetching)
Day 1 of #revpitwaiting!

Personal Intro! You can QT each post with your answers or make a whole thread pinned to keep answers together. But let’s kick off the fun and make some friends!
