A query letter is an introductory letter you send to an agent, telling them about you and your book. It is your opportunity to seduce the person who can help you thrive in your writing career and convince them you are the best person to write your book.

But, how do you know if you even need a query letter in the first place? In today's episode, Lauren answers that and a lot more! She not only breaks down what goes into a query letter and how you can get yourself a literary agent, but she also tells what you should leave out, how to know if you're ready to query agents, how to handle rejection as a writer, why a joining writing group is so beneficial to your writing career, and the list goes on.

This episode is jam-packed with so much valuable information you just don't want to miss it!
