QQQ: Horror Author Cynthia Pelayo and Your Person Versus Your Persona

Queries, Qualms, & Quirks asks published authors to share their successful query letter and discuss their journey from first spark to day of publication.

Horror Author Cynthia Pelayo joins Queries, Qualms, & Quirks this week to discuss breaking stereotypes, having an MFA but not knowing how to query, separating your person from your online persona, getting rejected by every major publisher, listening to your gut on edits, taking 4 years off writing, focusing on the writing instead of the drama, and avoiding the comparison game.

Cynthia Pelayo is a three-time Bram Stoker Award nominated author and poet. She lives in Chicago with her family.
