A Killer Query Letter Can Be a Key Part of the Publishing Process

The words "query letter" make some writers weak in the knees. You may be able to write a 40,000-word novel, but when it comes to crafting a great 500-word query...ach!

A great query letter is more than the sum of its parts. It's also a way for you to see more deeply into your work. If you have trouble with the synopsis, now is a good time to think about your novel's themes.

This short training will cover:

  • How to craft a compelling synopsis of your novel for the query
  • How to structure your query letter
  • The status of publishing today and recommendations for finding agents and editors

Your book deserves an attention-grabbing query letter.

Here's the good news: I've been working as an author for over 25 years and have seen all sides of writing and publishing. This query letter clinic is my guide to help you navigate the murky waters of the industry.

Janet Fox

Hi there! I'm an award-winning author with 12 traditionally-published books, from picture books through young adult novels. When I started writing for children I had few places to turn to for help and guidance. I struggled through workshops and craft books and rejection. That's why I now wish to help writers like you.

I'm proud to have guided dozens of writers from rough draft to publication, and taught numerous online courses from beginner-level to advanced.

I look forward to seeing your books in the hands of happy readers!
