The querying process for my novel Glitch has been such a wild, eye-opening ride into the world of publishing. Always grateful for the education! But if there’s one thing I’ve learned? Coming up with comp titles is no joke. 😅

FACT OR FICTION? You must comp to a book in the same age group as the one you're querying.

Maybe I'm overthinking it. SFF readers out there who'd like to throw out suggestions for comps?

Did you now comp titles are used throughout the whole trad publishing process? Authors to pitch to agents, agents to pitch to editors, publishing houses to position the book, design the cover, and decide the size of the print run. #WriteSky #CompTitles #WritingTips #AmQuerying
