Critique Workshop Part 2--Saturday

Here we go for another round! 

Let's see if we can still make it helpful. Critiquing queries not only helps the owner of the query, it also builds valuable skills in what makes a query work and what doesn't. The more you help others with their queries, the more you can learn about how to make your own query successful.

Please leave comments for all of our entrants. And make those comments as helpful as possible. You can take a week if needed to get them all done, but please don't skip anyone.

If you'd like your query added to the group, contact me in the comments or on twitter.

  1. I find it easier to write and critique queries for other people's books. It's so important to get your query critiqued, and totally awesome that you're doing this.

  2. I'd like to add my query to the group. I'm not quite for sure how to submit, though.

    1. Sure. I have spaces right now. Can't say how long they will last. First come, first serve. :-)

  6. I submitted, but I'm worried my comments will not be very helpful because I know still so little about query letters. Will try my best. Thank you Michelle!

    1. You'll do fine. Just your thoughts on what is good or bad will help. :-)
