@lucyrosecreates: EDIT: for transparency, before I queried the lamb, I queried six other books and I had literally over a thousand rejections because I was querying about 200 agents per book. The publishing industry is really really hard, but I think this covering letter formula helped me get noticed. Sharing this oldie because I think there’s some good advice here #onthisday #writing #querying #writer #author
What would you recommend for someone querying who hasn’t been published before? Or would you advise against it?

I love seeing queries that don’t follow the structure that is preached, it gives me hope that creativity and individuality can still be rewarded 🥹

This is interesting. Other videos have shown the synopsis to have the comps and author bio. Are these just interchangeable?

I have never seen a query letter in this format, or one that outlines what the author wants from an agent. It's made me rethink my approach, thank you so much for sharing, your querying stays are phenomenal BTW!

This is the first time I've seen a query letter example where you say what you want from an agent! I've just started my querying journey again - have sent THREE - and this is so helpful thank you!
