Watch Literary Agent Livetweet Her Rejections To Aspiring Writers

Jennifer Udden, a literary agent at the Donald Maass Literary Agency, has decided to livetweet going through her slush pile, using the hashtag “millionqueries.” Which means you can see her thoughts on manuscripts in real-time, including the reasoning behind her rejections. Luckily, there’s no need to blindly submit to literary agents anymore — we have the Internet.
