Hi #10Queries friends. As a #BIPOC #editor, I loved that many of the subs and #authors were so culturally diverse. I'll be using these abbreviations in my feedback.

QL: Query Letter
FF: First Five Pages
MC: Main Character
GMC: Goal, Motivation, Conflict
WC: Word Count
C/TW: Content/Trigger Warning
