What are writing samples or writing clips?

If a publisher or agent requests writing samples or clips, they’re asking to see samples of your writing. Samples should be portions of published material and should be related in some way to the project you’re shopping. For instance, if you are submitting a romance novel, a non-fiction magazine piece isn’t an acceptable sample. A portion of a published fiction or romance magazine story would be appropriate. If you have no publications and the party requests writing clips, send your submission without the samples.
