Listen Later

In this episode of the Las Musas Podcast's Ask a Musa host Lulu Delacre joins

Alyssa Reynoso-Morris, Gabi Aldeman, and Sallie Anne Rodriguez to answer questions about pitches, querying, being prepared, and never quitting.

They started by talking about books they are reading now, such as The Last Beekeeper by Pablo Cartaya, Pilar Ramirez and the Escape from Zafa by Julian Randall, Free Water by Amina Luqman-Dawson (Author), the adult historical book titled Miss del Rio by Bárbara Mujica 

Then they attacked the questions such as:

  • Dos and Don’ts when pitching your book for Twitter contests, agents, and editors, including many resources and tips.

  • How they got their agents.

  • Publishers that accept unsolicited manuscripts.

  • Resources and tips for unpublished BIPOC creators including amazing mentorships.

  • Finally, las musas talked a little bit about tips to stay positive and that “Sí, se puede.” 

    ¡Pa’lante!
