But there are some great examples of query letters out there to help guide you. People will often post their query letters that resulted in requests for partials or fulls.<br /><br />I'd recommend starting with writing a synopsis for your story. This helped me a lot. It not only helped me improve synopsis writing skills but also guided and directed my manuscript. I was able to take a serious look at what my story is about and what my characters want to achieve.<br /><br />And if/when you write a synopsis and/or query pop me a note and I'd be happy to critique it and help you try to perfect it. Maybe we can stumble through the process together ;)Jamie Krakoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808802721340647047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3140580904828834702.post-49565165456730031922012-07-13T10:37:30.073-05:002012-07-13T10:37:30.073-05:00I have been putting off even starting a query beca...I have been putting off even starting a query because I was never quite sure, even from oodles of research, how to start one. Or maybe I didn't quite know yet to what extent my novel was about. Either way, I'm sure, once I get up the courage to write my query this here will help me with it.<br /><br />Thank, Jamie :)<br /><br />- MeganAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05030815590453416906noreply@blogger.com
