Now that I'm stabby...
Today they have graciously invited me to their Stabby Writers Triberr, and I hope this proves to be mutually beneficial to everybody.
So in that spirit, I would like to remind everybody that reads my blog, that you can let me know just how you feel about a piece I wrote. I won't get mad and do something childish like unfollow you on twitter or something goofy. Instead, I would probably sit up and take notice, perhaps even interact with you more often.
I encourage all of you to show me some #stabbylove now and in the future.

What is #stabbylove? It's a Twitter hashtag where writers who aren't afraid to check their egos at the door and accept real, honest feedback on their work to make it as polished as possible, even if that feedback is 'stabby.'

Hello, Michael! I took your challenge, randomly clicked on your previous posts and got your query letter. It seems more like a condensed synopsis, as if you are trying to tell the entire story in a few paragraphs. When I read a query, I want to be teased. Also, the novel sounds like it is action packed, so hit me with a great lead-in! Su had some great suggestions for query writing today and she is the editor, not me, but those are two things that I thought stood out. I do love the story you outlined, sounds like a fun one. Stab on, brother!
I think that's wonderful and is exactly what I would like myself on my own blog!
I think I should check out #stabbylove too - do you have to be nominated or accepted to join in some way?

Thanks for your comment on my blog, Michael, and I'm all for #stabbylove!
Kelly: Thanks for the feedback. You are right on, and thankfully that is now an older draft and is no longer as synopsis like. (I should probably note that on the post)
Helen: I'll nominate you, but in the meantime, welcome to the #stabbylove world!
Damyanti: Yay #stabbylove!
"The promote a no-" I think you meant "They" ;)
because you'd do the same for me. I'm glad we've met. #stabbylove
Fixed, thanks!
