Product Description
I have written this book, and made it free, as a way of giving back to the writing community. I have already heard back from many writers that, as a result of reading it and applying its principles, they have found representation and launched their careers. Nothing could make me happier. I hope that you will put it to use, and find much success with your career.

Query Letter Blues November 21, 2008
I have spent no less than two-hundred hours scouring the internet for articles on how to write a query letter.
THE INFORMATION IN LUKEMAN'S BOOK IS THE CREAM OF THE CROP!
He graciously explains the basics while offering valuable tips that delve into the minds of those mystical creatures-- literary agents!
Thanks to HOW TO WRITE A GREAT QUERY LETTER, I feel extremely confident in the knowledge I've gained.
This book should be in every author's arsenal.
A useful and practical ebook November 11, 2008
This is a very useful and practical ebook, because it not only details and reasons how to write such a letter from formatting to following up, but also reveals some astonishing facts, for example, a literary agent can receive 10,000 queries a year (pp. 5-6), 90% of all query letters are related to fiction (p. 38), and receive 10 rejections a day (p. 53). This short can serve as a handbook when writing a query.

This is a great little ebook. I can't believed it's being offered free of charge right now. I learnt a lot about not only writing great query letters, but business letters of any kind. Very useful and helpful advice. Excellent product.
A great how-to August 29, 2008
I heartily recommend this thorough essay. I had minor quibbles with a couple of details because of the genre in which I write, but Mr. Lukeman addresses those quibbles right in the essay.
Do your research, he instructs. He outlines what to research and why, and anyone who follows that advice alone won't have to worry about if they've got it right for their specific genre.
If every writer followed the advice in this essay then we'd have happier, less busy agents. Be part of the solution. Download the essay and write better queries starting today!

How to Write a Great Query Letter provides an easy step-by-step process which concisely answers the question - What does it take to write a query letter that will get read? Lukeman offers ideas for research before you draft the letter, formatting and printing tips and reinforces the three-paragraph rule. Chapter seven discusses how fiction and non-fiction query letter should differ. Chapter eight deals with common makes made. This Amazon Short offers ideas on how to submit the letter and keys to following up. The checklists, examples, and clear verbiage will be helpful to new authors and those that have been in the game for a while. Definitely, a great deal for the price!
