Our aim is to encourage and promote reading and accept the madness that comes with it. WordLust is not for the faint-hearted; it's for people that have battle scars, tanned skin, calloused feet and soda eyeglasses that have come about as a result of their reading obsession. From seeking, searching, hauling and finally reading books.

Writing a good query letter
Synopses, blurbs, and query letters are the bane of most writers. If you’re querying agents or traditional publishers, it’s difficult to stand out in the slush pile.
The basic structure of a query letter is:
• Opening: One to two sentences describing the book, including the title, genre, and comparative titles in the market.
• Middle paragraphs: Plot details (don’t leave cliffhangers) and the literary merits of the manuscript.
• Ending: Short author bio, social media links, writing awards, and experience or credentials.
That’s it? Yep, that’s it—and that’s why it’s so hard to draw attention. One page is barely enough room to get the basics in, never mind highlight yourself. Some things that can help, though, are advance praise from other prominent authors, best-seller status, and successful previous publications.
It’s a hard sell. There is no such thing as a “perfect” query letter because every writer is different, every book is different, and every agent/publisher who is reading the letter is different. Have you figured out any tips to writing query letters?
