The Query Letter
Tweet Share
Log in to leave feedback.
In this session, we will discuss how to write a query letter that will grab agents’ attention. We will read query letters that were successful and not-so-successful, and share many strategies for the querying process: how to decide who to query, how to follow-up, how to decide who should represent you, and so on. We will break down the components of the query letter and learn the single most important part to include. Participants will leave with a practical guide on how to move from the writing process to the publishing process, and they’lll be more confident in how to navigate the journey of finding an agent and moving their work into the world.
