Such great #revpit #10queries advice for other MG Contemporary writers below from @leahrambadt.bsky.social! MG seems tough right now, so hopefully this is helpful. I've reposted my feedback here as well. [FP/QL8]. :) ๐Ÿ˜ #iamquerying

Overall structure is good. QL is on the long side though. Premise sounds promising, but thereโ€™s a lot of telling and too many details in the summary paras; could pare that down, and bring out the MCโ€™s voice more. Try to cover the broad strokes of MS. #RevPit #10Queries

Love the MCโ€™s voice! Great work with balancing MC interiority with chara interactions to start establishing who MC is and the problems theyโ€™re facing. Setting is a little vague, could use a little more developing. Interested in reading more. #RevPit #10Queries

Love the voice in this one! Very engaging and entertaining, instantly caught my attention. Great work previewing writing style and MC voice. Itโ€™s on the long side, so tightening the language and focusing on GMC while still keeping the voice is key. #RevPit #10Queries

MC is hilarious, def want to follow them around for an entire story. Love the MCโ€™s voice, the bits of interiority, and how descriptive lang reflects the MCโ€™s POV. Opening seems high energy to reflect MCโ€™s high energy; itโ€™s an effective hook, but would use strategically. #RevPit #10Queries
