In today's Books with Hooks, Bianca, CeCe, and Carly are joined by guest literary agent, Mary C. Moore. They critique a resubmission and a sci-fi query, during which they discuss: the importance of making tropes as fresh and different as possible; how to ensure your pitch isn't too dense, especially in genres that involve world-building; highlighting why you're the right person to tell the story you've written; writing plot points that connect to your major dramatic question; the balancing act of trying to write a cross-over novel; always being mindful of your writing at a line-level; the quality of prose that is required for literary fiction; the need to get inside a character's head to better understand them; avoiding overwhelming the reader with terminology that is specific to the world you've built; making your hook very clear; and expressing why your work is different from similar novels that have come before.

After which, Bianca interviews bestselling author, Annabel Monaghan. They discuss Annabel's latest, Summer Romance, and the unique inspiration behind it; Annabel's work as a columnist and how it contributed to her skills as an author; why she switched from YA to writing women's fiction and rom-coms; society's misguided assumptions about what 'smart' people should write and where the idea stems from; the art of writing in a way that gets into a reader's heart rather than just their head; the story behind Annabel's opening line in her latest novel; the challenge of knowing where to start your novel; writing about grief in a rom-com; and whether Annabel is a plotter or a pantser.
