Sorry if this is a silly question, but would #MR be correct for Mystical Realism?

Hi Jane,
MR isn't on the list but if you used that, it's what I would guess it's what it stood for.

I'm not sure what it means when people retweet my pitch. I assume it's just a "like" of sorts. Correct?

Yes, it's a fellow writer who is showing support of your pitch. The Fav is for a pub who likes your pitch and it's your clue that they want to see more of your work.

#Pit2pub is an amazing opportunity. I'm totally going to take advantage of it; once I cut another 80 characters! :) Thank you so much for doing this.

I was overthinking it. I was trying to put too much at once, much like writing a blurb.

I saw this on Wish List today. Thank you for setting this up. This is my first one - not sure what I am doing. Learning on the run at the moment.

Hi Peter, Might as give it a go. Practice if anything else ... and maybe you'll get a fav. Who knows.
