    Excellent interview with Barbara Poelle - she mentions the perfect query letter from Sophie Littlefield on her website but I'm having trouble finding it. Would you happen to have a direct link? Thanks!

    Literary Agents are lazy and simply do not want to read more than a couple of chapters of a manuscript.

      Arthur Crow No. Some of them get over a hundred queries in a week, so they can't read every manuscript in full. And why would they, if they can tell from the first few chapters if it's something they don't want to represent?

      Yeah that's what people say when they get rejected because their writing isn't any good.
