Query Letter


Hi all, this is the second draft of my query letter. Any crits and suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance, Marcia

December 6, 1999

Dear Agent:

Meet Ben Zacharias, the hero of FAST FRIENDS, a 50,000 word novel set in the psychedelic '60's. It's about a band called the Trojan Horse and the intertwined lives of the people, focusing on rock idol Ben Z. With his looks, charm and money, Ben excelled at juggling girls. Then one night he dropped the ball.

My Rebecca


Did she really know what she was getting into when she signed the contract? Now here she is, on a spooked horse, trying to cross a freezing river up in the mountains in Wyoming. Am I crazy or what, she thought to herself as she tried to convince this four-legged creature that the two-legged creature sitting on top wanted to get across the rapids. I know I love an adventure just as much as the other guy, but man...this has just got to be nuts.


Jessica and Maria, I've made a few changes in my story and query,but...


I have put them aside just for now. I got excited about my idea for another story that was brought on by us talking about memoirs. I may try my hand at the writing exercise. Hopefully I will be posting again soon. Love, Charla


TO: Alma *~*~* THANK YOU!! Great Suggestions! I think I WILL change the name of the story to "PLASTERED"
