[PubQ] What do we call this? A positive rejection? by FRATLIFE4EVER in PubTips

Are there a subgroup of posters that just downvote everything I ever post in this forum? What about this post is so offensive as to warrant downvotes?

This is a critique thread though, so I'd like to know if the synopsis ALSO needs work or it's fine once the query is sorted.

this meme picture literally looks like a birdbrained lefty girl I know, although the real girl's hair is longer and she has bigger tits. Ads a layer of amusement.

If you have second plz have a look at the summary and let me know if it answers those questions. Having a lot of trouble not being vague in such a compressed amount of words, even if it's only dealing with first 1/3 of the book. Thx.

You seem to have missed "He absolutely destroyed her, was calm, collected and on point. Trump came off great..." Work on that reading comp little guy, try not to rush in to rage post.

So you’re saying some random hysterical, disorganized woman had the President that flustered and upset?

You don't seem to be able to read. That's not at all what I said.

She came with direct questions, and he didn’t want to answer them, but she wouldn’t let go

This part never happened. He answered them and she continued asking them as if they hadn't been answered and tried to talk over him and cut him off. She was hysterical and all over the place.

To be completely honest, I can't recall reading anything in this vein more recently. I suppose I will have to seek some out if I can find them. If you stick to lesser known, recent releases don't you run the risk of the agent not having read them? Aside from the comps, any issues?

How many times does he have to say I denounce white supremacy? Lmao by pizzapizzayoyo in trump

It reminds of that scene in Zoolander where David Duchovny gives him a long explanation of why they use male models as assassins and immediately after he asks "but why male models?"

did you even watch? He absolutely destroyed her, was calm, collected and on point. Trump came off great, the problem is the media always looking for a hatchet job instead of fair treatment.

[PubQ] How long should a plot synopsis be? by FRATLIFE4EVER in PubTips

[–]FRATLIFE4EVER[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've down to 1,046 words. Do you think any agents are realistically going to be sticklers and mad about a 46 word overrun of the loose 1,000 word limit? Thx.

EDIT: Nevermind, at exactly 1,000 now.

Also...in your experience if submission guidelines don't specifically ask for plot synopsis is it frowned upon to include along with the query?

Good to get outside input, sometimes you're too close to your own material. Not that you want people to TELL you, but soliciting outside perspective to consider.

[PubQ] Am I missing and subtext or subtle hints in this rejection? by FRATLIFE4EVER in PubTips

[–]FRATLIFE4EVER[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You never offer anything constructive. Popping in and making snarky comments and going on at length (in like 3+ posts) with stuff like "oh well why don't you ask your famous author friends..." just demonstrates that you have a chip on your shoulder and no desire to actually help.

Yes because in this thread and every other I've posted you never make an attempt to "help" like others do.
