Query Critique
So I didn't get any queries to critique, so I'll post one of mine for you to critique in the comments. Yay! It's pretty terrible so rip it to shreds! Think of it as a chance to refine your own eye for such things.
But anyways, just a little reminder that on Tuesdays I'll do a query critique for anyone who sends it through as my way of saying thanks to all those who helped me. Please send me yours - katiejteller (@) gmail (dot) com
