Querying is hard. It's lonely. It's brutal. It's harrowing. It ravages the spirit. Querying is rejection. But querying is also hope. It's optimism. It's grit. You are not alone. You got this. #BeFearless #WritingCommunity #amquerying

@PinesforStories @skylarantwrites @n_serling We are building out our query database first so the site is more attractive for agents. It's a two-sided market and one side has to be the first to join.

@SaintlyScarlet It's hard, but its all about expectations. Go in knowing that you will get rejections. Go in knowing that you will face uncertainty. But go in knowing that the right agent may be out there looking for your book. Keep grinding until you find each other.

@CarmenDaVinleam Once we build up the number of agents on the platform, we will turn on the ability to search for and query agents. First, we are building up the author side to attract agents. Agents can still create accounts and invite you to query, but you can’t actively search for agents yet.
