Rebecca Rome (Author) is Querying!

#writingcommunity #booksky #writing

What do we think of The Authors Guild's Human Authored Certification? I registered my first published book (under my real name), but...where do you put the logo? Is this something that will help curb AI writing? Do we think this will become a requirement?

Gotcha! Sorry the MSWL part threw me off. Still in the query trenches!

Are you an agent too?

Yay! Excited to query you!

I would love to query you, but I queried Chandler a couple of months ago, and I'm waiting to hear back!

Got it! I'll keep an eye on you then!

Hi, Hoda! Are you open to a requery if the manuscript and query letter have undergone major structural changes? I originally submitted to you almost five months ago.

Hi Audrey! I see your MSWL says you want "mostly" narrative nonfiction. Are you open to fiction that also fits the description of what you'd like to see? Ones that ask questions and make space for tension?

Just queried! Excited to hear from you!

Totally understand. Thank you!

I have a women's fiction with romantic elements and TONS of yearning---but I already queried Carly and am waiting to hear back.

I've already queried Noelle with my contemporary women's fiction, but I'm keeping you on my radar, as well!

Welp, this makes me feel even better about my submission to you!

I have a women's fiction story with romantic elements and millennial (early 2000s) vibes. QT says you're not open to unsolicited manuscripts, but I'd love to query you!

Sending a women's fiction with a slow burn romantic element to your QT right now!

#WF #LF #RF #A / 89k / #Q

After twelve years of marriage built on stability, a thirty-something woman secretly reconnects with her first love—forcing her to confront whether safety is enough when desire and identity have quietly eroded.

📖 IT SHOULD’VE BEEN YOU 📖
#WF / 89k / #Q

When a married thirty-something secretly reconnects with her first love after twelve years, she must choose: stay in a marriage that feels safe but hollow—or risk everything to discover who she might have been.

#QuestPit

Love that you’re taking part! Hope you find some great stories!

It was actually easy. The novel is based on a true story for me it was easy to toggle between past and future but in general I love how the past informs the present.

Aw yay!!!
