It isn’t only in the Abrego Garcia case that the Trump executive is flagrantly ignoring judicial orders. The Trump WH continues to block AP from press pool, despite expiration of an administrative stay on injunction requiring AP’s access. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Reading some queries today and encountered several that don't tell me anything about the story in the query letter. No mention of characters or plot or stakes. Also several projects listed under the wrong genre just to send them--this is an automatic no.
