I have been reading every agent blog I can find for months now. I have read and reread winning query letters. I am trying to be spongelike. In both ways- absorbing as much information as possible and SpongeBob like when he shouts, “I’m ready!”
My head is starting to spin from all the information out there. Do this, don’t do that, always do this, never do that– much of the information conflicts with other advice.
Waxman literary agency must have sensed my pain. This blog post made me want to shout, Hooray!
So, I am taking a little break from research. I need to finish round two edits. When I am ready to submit, I will read and triple check submission guidelines for each agent I am going to send queries to along with brushing up on what each one wants. Courier Sans or Times New Roman – word count and genre at the start of the query or at the end- I shall be like Burger King. I shall make it their way.
Hopefully one or two will enjoy it enough to ask for more.
