Yes, you mentioned in your query that I’d liked your pitch during dvpit. I was referring to a different situation where someone sent a query using that link for a category I’m not requesting at all right now and never mentioned the dvpit contest. But I can see what link they used to submit.

Not at all. I’d remembered your pitch. It’s happened before with dvpit in particular where people the pitch event isn’t intended for try to use it to sneak into the query inbox when I’m closed. Marginalized authors don’t get as many opportunities in publishing already, so it really irritates me.

Reminder that if anyone uses this link and I did not request your manuscript as part of dvpit, it's an automatic rejection. Don't try to cheat your way into my inbox. You'll burn through your only chance to submit that manuscript to me.

Hi Michelle, I was one of the people who used that link recently. You'd requested my query during dvpit, but I couldn't submit at the time because my query was in the inbox of one of your colleagues. Adding this context in case it matters to you. Definitely not trying to sneak in the back door!

"Every muscle shook as if she were inside a blizzard" does the dying-from-the-inside work without saying it outright. And Aria reaching for Riley, then jerking back, says everything about their bond. Is this the scene you were worried about in DVPit?

With 13 queries and form rejections, the query itself is usually what needs work; the concept clearly landed in DVPit. I do query assessment notes on what's not landing and a revised version. Happy to share rates if you're interested.

Thirteen queries and a handful of form rejections usually means the query isn't giving agents enough to grab but the concept is clearly working, since you got the DVPit like. What did you change in the polish?

A DVPit like turning into a form rejection stings harder than a regular one; it feels like you got close, then the door closed. But you got the like in the first place, which means the pitch worked. Getting back on the horse the same night says a lot. What's the book?

A poem for latest #DVpit Part - I
" ...And then again as we feel deeply hurt on our destiny
we mustn't forget that we are writers, children of imagination and lust
For our words may not be enough to start a mutiny
But we shall always be made of words and fucking stardust."
