Landing a literary agent often starts not with the book itself, but with the materials you use to introduce it. Agents receive hundreds of submissions each month, which makes polished, professional query materials essential.
I help authors develop complete query packages tailored to their project and target agents. This includes:
Query Letters — concise, compelling introductions that capture your book’s hook, your qualifications, and why the project fits the agent’s list.
Book Proposals — sometimes called blanket proposals, these are longer documents (commonly used for nonfiction) that outline the book’s concept, market, competition, chapter summaries, and author platform. A strong proposal shows an agent or publisher not just what the book is, but why it will sell.
Elevator Pitches and Descriptions — short, impactful ways to describe your book that you can use in queries, proposals, or networking conversations.
You don’t always need a finished manuscript to start querying, especially in nonfiction. With the right materials, you can begin conversations with agents before your book is complete. I’ll help you shape and refine these materials so they meet professional standards and fit the specific requirements of the agents you’re approaching.
