Query Shark

Query Shark

How an agent =really= feels. Query critiques for the strong-at-heart.

e.g. Please don't ever put I look forward to hearing from you soon in a query letter. It sets my teeth on edge. Other agents may not have quite the ..ah...toothy! reaction that I do, but why risk they do. Be safe. Don't say it.

Her voice may sound familiar to you.

Shhh.
