The fact you guys get this stuff in your inbox all the time only makes it easier for those who actually know how to follow directions lol. So that makes it a good thing for those seriously wanting this to be their career.
It can't be emphasised enough that this all really comes down to a _business_ decision. To me, the query letter is basically the author, wearing the hat of the business person, writing to the agent with a business proposal. And business, when done well, is seeking a mutual benefit for both parties, and therefore must be based on a _mutual understanding_ of each other. So I think that author's query letters have to be based on an understanding of what the agent's needs are. Authors need to research and understand the agent they are pitching to. It's that simple.
Successful novel publishing requires that you park your interests, park your ego, park your wants, park your need for an income, and seek to satisfy one goal: producing a product that will sell. If you can't partner with your agent to develop a work product that will sell, you're wasting their time...and your own. If you have strong feelings about your personal draft, keep a copy of it as your "director's cut."
Oh, those wretched comp titles! I have a challenge for you both: pick one book, and go find some comp titles for it - without using your own extensive immersion in the literature. You know nothing about any other book except the biggies. What do you do?
Re agents name: It might be worth pointing out that there is at least one agent out there that prefers Ms. and her last name, because it feels more respectful. But it also might be the kind of thing that comes up if you really research the agent.
I thoroughly enjoyed all your videos. They are informative, and I am captivated by the joy you both express when discussing your work and the manuscripts you are passionate about. I have a question regarding my current historical fiction novel, set in 1920s Chile, which I have begun querying for. While doing so, I have also started translating it into Spanish. As a bilingual author, I feel that translating it allows me to preserve the tone and cadence of the original text, even if there are eventual edits. However, I know publishers often prefer to handle translations through established channels. Would my translation be seen as an issue during the submission process? Additionally, if I cannot secure representation or a publisher for the English version within the next six months, I plan to approach Spanish-language publishers. Would this affect my ability to pursue an agent or publisher for the English version later? Am I jumping the gun a bit? Thank you for your time and insight.
Question: What is a literary thriller? Would it be, perhaps, a more "quiet" thriller that is more character-driven and has a strong internal development arc?
This was so encouraging, thank you! It gave me a lot of reassurance about the query I sent to Ramona at BookEnds not too long ago. I do have one question: If an agent receives a query that although in their category, e.g. science-fiction, however it doesn't suit that agent's taste in science-fiction, would that query be potentially passed on to another agent in the same company who is looking for the same genre?
Jessica and James have said in some of their other videos that they would pass it on to an agent within their agency that would LOVE it, but not all agencies do that; I've been submitting a manuscript this month and on some agents' websites they state they do or don't in their submission guidelines. Sometimes they don't mention it, but they will say something along the lines of you should only query one agent or, "a no from one is a no from all". In those instances I think they probably do as well. Hope that helps :)
Thanks for another great video! Two questions- 1) If I am using a comp title that is in a series, should I name the series as the comp or the latest book in the series? (For cozy mysteries) 2) If an agent says they want mysteries but do not specify what kind, would it be reasonable to assume they are wanting cozies? I see some agents mention cozies, but some just say mysteries (& have cozy authors as clients). Thank you!
Can I use an older title and combine it with a more recent book? I'm having a hard time finding comp titles for my historical novel with fantastical elements and I would love to mention the tone of The Color Purple with a more recent title.
Question: Have you (or other agents) ever signed an author but then realized there is a much better manuscript on the same topic and then switched authors?
As in having a different author ghostwrite your book? Or as in ending your contract because another book showed up? The latter I would think is illegal.
Is it appropriate to write a thank you note for a kind, encouraging rejection? I've received two, and both encouraged me, but I didn't want to bug the agent. Thank you!
Question for James: Are you still open to author/illustration queries? (Multiple SCBWI awards recipient) Regardless, love listening to you and Jessica!
Hello! This video is so helpful (and you both are so much fun to listen to). Regarding comp titles, do you like seeing the use of currently popular books? For instance, my friend said my WIP gives Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, but I’m worried that book is too popular to use as a comp title. Thank you for your insight.
Hi! Recent and popular comps are good! It shows that you know the current market, and it's also more likely that the person reading the query will know something about whatever title you're comping to. If you use an obscure title as a comp, there's a chance that the reader won't know the book you're comping and therefore the comp doesn't help sell *your* book. But it's also usually okay not to put any comps in a query letter if you don't find one that fits/that you like!
I understand the idea and wisdom behind not including spoilers in the query, but these days when many agents are requiring Query Tracker for submissions, a synopsis is often required. A synopsis by its nature generally does have to include spoilers, including the book's ending. Does the requirement for a synopsis not cancel out the query blurb that has so carefully avoided such spoilers? Or do some agents using Query Tracker simply skip the synopsis?
Good question! The query letter is the place to build intrigue for your book, so this is where you don't want to spoil the ending. The idea of the query letter is to serve as the cover letter for your book, or like the inside book flap if it were published, and make the agent want to know what happens next. If they request a synopsis, then you are right that the synopsis should cover everything beginning to end. But the synopsis is like a companion to the sample pages. Everyone's process is different, but I think for the most part, if the query letter captures their attention and makes them want to know what's next, then they might dive into the sample and check where the story goes with the synopsis to know whether they are still interested.
What if the gender identity is known, i.e., their website bio refers to them as "he" or "she"? Are we then still supposed to not presume gender identity? Jeez...
Yet, another fab video. In fact - and don't let this go to your heads - this may be my favorite one yet! BIO: (Life story): You need not do it. HAHA!!! SPOILERS: Not in the query! (Save them for the DREADED!!! synopsis). THEMES: Ugh, just plain ugh. MALIGN (Books, agents, etc): Are you kidding? People do that? SMITE THEM! SENDING WRONG GENRE: Again, I'm sorry, what? Why would anyone do this??? James, question: I REALIZE YOUR PICTURE BOOK LIST IS FULL. However, I have a question. When you are open to picture books, do you accept author queries w/o illustrations? Said another way, do you have illustrators you've signed that you can match up w/a story you love? I promise I will not query you with this, I'm just curious how it works. I've never authored a children's picture book before this one crept into my head and haunted me until I wrote it down. Tx.
I did use "Ms./Mr." in my query. I got the agents' names right and made sure to only use the gender honorifics when it was clear (the agent's page referred to them as she/he), and for agents who said they didn't want honorific, I did not use one. Should I be worried about the queries I've already sent that had the gender honorifics?
Hi there! You shouldn't be worried-most agents are understanding and won't hold it against your query, even if you did end up getting the honorific wrong or something. The only time it would be troubling is if you were to ignore their requests to use specific/no honorifics-which it seems like you are not doing, so you should be fine :)
Another great video!!! Question: What if you have a YA or adult crossover? For example, if I've got an adult fantasy romance that's got crossover appeal, is it okay to comp to, say, an upper YA fantasy romance that has similar tones/vibes, setting, or audience? (Especially since the audience for YA fantasy, romantic fantasy, and fantasy romance are often the same people!)
Good question! We would always argue the easiest and most accurate bet is to avoid using a title! Titles are often about personal preference; for example, even for a woman that uses she/her pronouns, you don't know whether they prefer Ms., Miss, Mrs., or no title. Additionally, sometimes someone's pronouns are not an indicator of their gender the way we traditionally think about it. So, unless they specify how they'd like to be addressed, we think it makes the most sense to skip it :) Thanks for asking!
oooh.. I use gender honourifics. But only after looking everywhere first. Recent print interviews. The person's biography. If they've put it on their website. I think i will stop now that you guys have given the ok. Thank you!
Re: spoilers, i think this is exactly opposite advice you gave in another video, where you said “tell us where it goes, we need to know how it wraps up, don’t say ‘will he solve the mystery…’ just tell us “
The quote you're pulling sounds like Jessica and James may have been talking about a synopsis, not a query! Sometimes people conflate the synopsis and the blurb, but they're two different things. For example, a lot of people call the blurbs on the backs of books or on the front flap of hardcovers a "synopsis" but that actually is not a synopsis! A synopsis is a full outline/summary of the major beats of the story from beginning to end, including spoilers. A blurb is what you find on the backs of books: usually a short bit of exposition and a hint at the main conflict, meant to make you want to read more. So the blurb in a query should NOT spoil the ending (unlike in a synopsis) because you want the agent to think "I need to know how this gets resolved!" I hope this clarifies! If there was a misspeak in a previous video, apologies for any confusion!
@@BookEndsLiterary ah! Thank you for the clarification. Just to be super clear then: the query should contain a blurb, not a synopsis. Correct? PS: love your channel! 🥰
It kind of seams like your enjoying holding power of people. I can’t imagine throwing out a query letter over using a name you don’t prefer, that’s just horribly pretentious.
If your that uptight about your name or gender on first contact, that is actually a big red flag to me. I actually do faux pas like that on purpose to see how people react, so that I can learn who they are. It's like taking a prospective employee to lunch to see how they treat the waiter to learn who they are. If your reaction to trivial stuff is to be super triggered, then that lets me know to move on from you, because life is to short to deal with high maintenance people. Also, show me a person who says "Don't assume gender" and I'll show you someone who assumes that and other stuff about people all day long. It's nonsense. We all make assumptions about our fellow humans all day long. It's how we survive as a society. Show me someone triggered by it, and I'll show you someone I won't work with.
@@siouxsquaw Sorry you think if I said Sir or Mrs, that my Querie is weird. Actually when I bait, 99% of the time, they just correct me like a normal person. Take this conversation for instance, you have told me who DM is by your responses to me. Both the one you wrote, and then the one you rewrote after you deleted your first one. which I do respect. Your second one was better. Let me tell you about my career. I am published both traditionally and now exclusively digitally as the money is way better. I'm just not published under Reggie. Reggie is just a random name I use so that I can have freedom of speech in a cancel culture. Listen, I like these two, and I listen to about 20 to 30 of their posts a year at 1.5 speed. Let me help you out though. They do this to promote their business, which is great, but they are also quite left leaning, and as such, will give you "personal" advice from that direction. If you haven't gleaned that, then you need to question more. Remember, everyone with a channel has agendas, and personal beliefs. Everyone. And that's fine, but don't just think because you like two people and they are correct a lot of the time, that they are right 100% of the time, nor that they speak for the whole industry. They have a lot of personal bias in their advice from time to time and even then know that. And thanks for the good wishes, but my career is doing great, and luck had nothing to do with it. If anyone is waiting to become successful in this business through luck, then they are probably going to "fail". My number one advice? Study writing. Number two? Write as often as you are willing to. Write anything! I wrote you a response, and then rewrote it, because why not! (You did too) I love to write! And finally number three, and this is just as important... learn to promote yourself!!! If you can't promote yourself, then your probably going to fail. Period. Getting your name out there is maybe even more important, the the first two combined. Unless you ironically DO in fact get lucky, like having Oprah or Reese Witherspoon slaps a sticker on your book and then WOOOOOWEEEEEE! Your in the money! Your in the money! We've got a lot of what it takes to get along! But that is not going to be you or I statistically speaking, so learn to promote yourself! Otherwise if you equate money to success, AND YOU SHOULD, at least when it comes to writing, your not going to make it no matter how many books you get published. Bye.
@Reggie you can't spell, your sentences make no sense, and you're in the comments of a how-to-query video talking about "baiting" people. You imply you bait them when you query. And you expect anyone to believe you're traditionally published? Get outta here, man. 🙄
