Fab Pages Failed Query

· 32 min · Season 19 Episode 1916

Show notes

Here's why you need to invest time learning to write plot paragraphs: even if your sample pages are stunning, a weak query will sink the whole submission. Don't believe me? Listen to this episode. The author's line writing is spot on but the plot paragraphs in the query letter don't describe the plot and so what Kathleen and I thought we were getting, isn't what we got at all and that can — and will — make an agent say no. Happily, rewriting the QL is much easier than rewriting the manuscript! -V.
