How to Hook an Agent with Your Query Letter OnDemand WebinarTraditional publishing and self publishing are two legitimate distribution channels for literature. Whether you are pursuing an agent and a book deal or intending to go it on your own, you must understand how to pitch your book. Write a spectacular novel and then get it read! A superior pitch (in a superior query) is what you need to seal the deal. What makes a pitch "hot"? What does the ideal query letter look like? What to include and what to avoid

Traditional publishing and self-publishing are two legitimate distribution channels for literature. Whether you are pursuing an agent and a book deal or intending to go it on your own, you must understand how to pitch your book. Write a spectacular novel and then get it read! A superior pitch (in a superior query) is what you need to seal the deal.

What makes a pitch "hot"? What does the ideal query letter look like? What to include and what to avoid – it's a skill that includes more than just "make it short."

In this webinar, Sara will examine how to compose an effective query letter and how to use this tool to pursue publishing.

What you will learn:

  • How to write an effective pitch: An author writes because s/he loves the art of literature. Publishing, though, is a business. And the number one tool an author needs to pursue publishing is the ability to clearly and concisely pitch their work in a way that attracts attention.
  • How to use that pitch in traditional publishing models AND in self-publishing models: The publishing industry is changing under the momentum of the self-publishing/e-publishing revolution. Whether a writer wants a traditional book contract or a self-published novel, the pitch is the hook used to attract agents, editors and ultimately readers. Learn how to make yours competitive!
  • How to mold that pitch into a query letter that stands out in the slush pile: What agents and editors look for in a query letter is simple and yet difficult to master. We will go, point by point, through a compelling query letter and finish up with a list of places to go for critiques, sample query letters and further resources.
  • How to avoid common red flags and problems: Does your query open with hypothetical questions? Is it too long? Is it confusing or chaotic? Learn how to identify and avoid these common mistakes.

Great for behind a dresser
Size: 5 FT (2 prong plug), Color: White
Works great. Plug lays flat against the wall. Doesn't charge great on USB C ports, but it'll get you by. USB charging is 2 out of 5. Quality seems 4 out of 5.

Excellent cable tray—holds everything securely and installs in minutes!
Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W
So glad I bought this! The Univivi cable management tray was exactly what I needed to clean up the mess under my desk without drilling or damaging the surface. The clamp-on design is sturdy and holds tight, and setup took just a couple of minutes with no tools needed beyond what’s in the box. I was pleasantly surprised that it holds a full-size power strip securely using the included straps, and there’s still plenty of room for additional cables and adapters. The tray is breathable and helps keep everything from being visible, off the floor and out of sight. If you're looking for a non-permanent solution for organizing power bricks, cords, and excess cable length, this is a great choice. Functional, neat, and hassle-free—highly recommended!

Game changer for cable management – clean setup in minutes
Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W, Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W
This under-desk cable tray is exactly what I needed. Installation was stupid easy with the clamp mounts — no drilling, no damage to my desk, and it feels rock solid once tightened. The fabric tray holds way more than I expected (power strip + multiple cables) and keeps everything hidden instead of dangling everywhere. My setup instantly looks cleaner and more intentional. If you care about a minimal desk aesthetic, this is a no-brainer. Build quality is better than I expected for the price. The metal brackets are sturdy, the fabric is thick, and it comes with plenty of straps for organizing cables properly. If you’re tired of seeing cable spaghetti under your desk, buy this. Simple, effective, and worth every dollar. Highly recommended.
