Hook an Agent With Your Query and First Pages!
| While being able to finish projects is key, the beginning can help set the tempo in ways that pay off later on down the road, whether we're talking about the productivity of a week or year, the time on a road race, or the success of your book with agents.
Let's face it, agents don't get paid to read manuscripts in the slush pile. As a result, they're making quick decisions whether to read on-often based on the query and first few pages and sometimes even the opening page alone. So how does a writer hook an agent in the time it takes to read this newsletter?
Luckily, Writer's Digest has the Get a Literary Agent: How to Catch an Agent's Interest With Your Query and First Pages boot camp to answer that very question!
In the boot camp, literary agents from New Leaf Literary & Media will lead a 60-minute online tutorial to writers, provide personalized feedback on attendees' queries and opening pages, answer specific questions on the Writer's Digest University discussion boards, and more!
