So, I wrote a novel. Good for me, right?
I queried it. No bites. My query did not do well here in SYW.
Finally face the fact that the issue was with my MS. The plot was weak, the characters didn't have set motivations. All in all, it was good practice at writing, but not sellable. Depressing but I'm proud of myself for not being stubborn.
So, I have a new idea for a plot. The only thing that is really the same is the characters. If I query this, would I even mention that I had previously queried another version? The only thing that would be the same are the character's names and overall personalities.
I realize I'm getting ahead of myself, but I was curious.
