Okay, let’s get into it: the query package! In this informative, empowering class, we’ll demystify the query letter and synopsis in a fun and hands-on way; look at multiple approaches for framing your work in the best light; dig into story openings and what they need to captivate both industry gatekeepers and readers in general; analyze real world examples and what made them effective; and play with producing inviting queries, synopses, and openings of our own.
Even if you’re not yet at the stage where you’re preparing your submissions material, this class will still be useful in helping you solidify your story ideas, offering you a True North for not only crafting your work but being able to express its essence in a concrete and potent way. And if you are getting ready to submit your work, this will provide an effective roadmap for setting yourself—and your story—up for publishing success.
