I struggled with putting too much into the query. This helped me streamline it into a decent query. Thank you.

[@stephaniecox5770]

Thank you Max. I found your presentation very generous in terms of information and encouragement. I wish I'd heard this before I decided to self publish my memoir! 😃

[@JimmyOH91]

This is the single most useful video/info I've found about querying for memoir, thank you!

[@EricWartenweilerSmith]

This was really informative, I took pages of notes and look forward to the transcript. Thanks Max and Martin!

[@RustiAndWritingResources]

Martin, I do not see the link you mentioned around 1 hour 3 minutes about a link to literary gents. Oops, found it in the comments. Thanks.

[@outandabout1396]

This very insightful, basically do it yourself, or have something of substance, cuz we are not going to do it for you. Unless you already have a name to Pull from.
