Writing a query letter? Check out this free e-book!

March 28, 2015 By: Jason Bougger

Free ebook HOW TO WRITE A GREAT QUERY LETTER INSIDER TIPS AND TECHNIQUES FOR SUCCESSCool! Here’s a free e-book by Noah Lukeman (the author of The First Five Pages: A Writer’s Guide To Staying Out of the Rejection Pile).

To me, writing the query letter is just as difficult as writing the novel. Agents and editors are busy. You may have only one or two seconds to grab their attention with your query letter, so your query has to be a perfect as possible.

The download also includes includes Noah Lukeman’s two books HOW TO LAND (AND KEEP) A LITERARY AGENT and ASK A LITERARY AGENT, which just sweetens the deal.

Designed for writers of fiction and non-fiction, for screenwriters and poets, it speaks to a broad range of authors, offering principles that will help lead to success no matter what your craft. Practical, engaging, filled with exercises, anecdotes and sidebars, this 80 page e-book takes you on a journey, will transform your query letter from a document that could be rejected to a document that will make agents take you seriously.
