- It doesn't get any easier than this....
- Ah, the dreaded query letter. It's sad to think that a tiny introduction letter of your work can be the fine line between an author and literary representation. It's also sad because most authors don't enjoy writing them or don't know how. I was one of those writers only until recently. I've spent most of this year sending out query letters; I've gotten some rejections and am still waiting to get some responses.
I only wish I would have come across this free download a few months ago. Lukeman's information here is precise and very informative. Any aspiring writer who is thinking about querying in the near future should definitely download it.
By reading agent blogs and websites, you'll quickly discover that every agent is different in what they want. Lukeman touches on that here as well. Some want the first 5 pages. Some want 20. Some want an outline. Others only want a letter. Lukeman's advice definitely helps an author to be prepared up front in order to meet deadlines and stay on top of agent replies.
I will definitely be pulling out my copy of this download next time I'm ready to start querying again. It's better than anything I've read on the market today as far as "how to's" for writers go. Thank you Noah Lukeman for making it a free asset! - 2008-04-02, 4 of 4 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Straight Forward
- I have been tossing around the idea about sending a query letter.First, I had to stumble upon who to send it to and then after feeling reasonably good about this agent's authenticity, I remembered seeing Mr. Lukeman's short, "How to Write a Great Query Letter."
Mr. Lukeman has mentored me and doesn't know it. I read this informative piece and became more confident in my desire to query.
This short does what the author intends, informs the reader completely with well grounded advice and tips .
Many thanks Mr. Lukeman
