Rebecca Elswick replied to the discussion 'Should you submit queries to different Agents in same Agency?' in the group Query Critique
"My experience is that most agents discourage this practice. Some even say so on their websites. However, when enough time has passed, (of course that too is subjective) it's okay to submit to a different agent in the same agency you queried…"

Shannon Alexander replied to the discussion 'I think it's getting better do you?' in the group Query Critique
"Building slightly on Stacey's suggestions the following sentence feels awkward to me:     Perhaps:   He left us with no power and no water.  The food never came.   This seems like an extremely powerful story for you.…"

"With correcting a few issues the ladies already have addressed here, I think this is one power-packed query. I think you've come a heck of a long way with it! I'm confused, what is the title? I thought it was Beneath the Silver Lining??? I…"

Michelle Gwynn Jones replied to the discussion 'I think it's getting better do you?' in the group Query Critique
"Is the first line below part of your query or is it something you were telling us at SheWrites.  If so both the "s" in silver and the "l" in lining must be capitalized or small, I don't know which one, but they…"

"    Amanda, great to see this grow. I think Sarah makes (as usual) some spot on points, which I too would consider if this were my query. Depending on how much you want to reveal is obviously your choice. As for myself, I find it…"

Sarah Pinneo replied to the discussion 'I think it's getting better do you?' in the group Query Critique
"Wow.  This is now a very powerful query.  You have set the scene, and it's very forceful.  The first real paragraph "On the morning... food didn't come" is totally a winner. Now, I'm hesitant to make more…"

  Happy Friday everyone! Thank you so much for all of your wonderful advice thus far. With this one I feel like I am on a better track...Hope ya'll feel the same!!!I just put in the body!!Thank you again. This means so much.Amanda   I have always believed there is a Silver lining in all things. It is what was beneath, that was so horrific.     On the morning of my ninth Birthday, my grandfather died. That was my first life altering experience, during this terrible family crisis, my father…See More

"I think this is a much better version, but I agree that it still doesn't quite hit why your story is better than the others.  Delve into it a bit deeper.  I had a rough, nightmare of a childhood.  Poor, a horrible father who did…"

"I do like the use of 1st person in your query. It makes it personal. The title is Beneath the Silver Lining, right? This phrase keeps catching me as I read over your query, so I went and googled the phrase. I'm wondering if you can work this…"

I just opened the door to the novelist group for you, Amanda - welcome! You might introduce yourself by telling us what you’re working on in the “Show Me Your Novel and I’ll Show You Mine” discussion if you're not too uncomfortable talking about what you're working on. And we do a live chat every Wednesday; hope you can join us for that. I’ll look forward to chatting with you!
