No, I'm not thinking of querying my 36,000 skeletal rough draft of my first novel just yet. I'm not quite there. However, I do have friends that are in the thick of things, and The Query Letter looms greater than Godzilla for them. Here's a great site I found for learning what to do and what not to do with a query letter.
Janet Reid's Query Shark
I will be eating up this information, hopefully preparing myself for the Big Day when I, too, will have a query letter ready to send.
"Everybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people of the world, I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside, inside them they've all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds. Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybe" ~ Neil Gaiman (A Game of You)
