I love Laura and Query101.blog 💖the query letters on there were especially helpful for me
I feel like it’s really changed even since I started querying in 2020. I do maintain query101.blog, a totally free resource that walks writers through the mechanics of querying (like how to write a query/synopsis, where to look up agents, etc)

my latest newsletter is about submission, how i failed the first time & succeeded the second. failure is so hard to admit to, but it's a very real part of the process. this was absurdly scary to write, but it's out there now. i hope it helps someone💕 thesophiewan.substack.com/p/…

Hey. If you didn’t finish that novel, essay collection, poetry chapbook, memoir, picture book, etc… This year was hard. You made it. Next year is full of time to write again.
