Need help with your query? Whether you are getting ready to send out your first query to agents/editors, or you've already sent a bunch but aren't getting the response you desired, then you might want to consider a query critique. A critique can help you to clarify and strengthen the hook of your query so that an agent wants to see more. Sometimes it takes an objective eye to identify sources of confusion or unnecessary elements in a query. Other times a query can lose its voice from having too many beta readers. A good query critique can assist you in ironing out the wrinkles so that you can send a strong and compelling letter to agents.
