Agent Query Prep-work Chart

Want to help support the author?


So you’re ready to send out a batch of queries. Let’s say you’re sending 10 at once. (That’s pretty common, but there is no “right answer” to how many agents you should query simultaneously. Some say less, some say more. Do what works for you.) You want to send them all on the same day, so no one agent has too much of a head start. Good plan, but you have to admit that that’s a little overwhelming. How to prepare?

This is not a submissions chart. This is the chart that will help you personalize your basic query, and organize your thoughts before you send out your project. To clear my example information, simply highlight the cells you want to empty and push “delete” (not “backspace”). Good luck!
