A to Z: Query Quandary

Double points again!

And yes, I had to look up how to spell quandary and make sure it meant what I *thought* it meant...hey, don't judge. :)

This is a hot topic for me and my krit partners right now...all three of us are in the process of putting a decent query together and it's SO.NOT.EASY. Squeezing an entire book into three succinct paragraphs takes lots and lots of patience, coupled with lots and lots of revisions.

And because I've been patrolling the internets tonight for nuggets of query wisdom, I thought it the perfect time to share the wealth of knowledge that is available out there. There's so much.

Here are just a few of the things I found UBER helpful:

And  now, onward, with lots and lots of ice cream!

Best of luck to all of you out there, like myself, about to tread the query waters!
