The Art of the Query Letter with Agent Adria Goetz

Oct 23, 2024

Online event

Writing a great query letter is an art and a science. This webinar examines the core elements every strong query letter has; you’ll learn how to add the extra pizzazz that will capture the attention of an agent or editor. Real examples from the instructor’s inbox, both good and bad, will be shared, as well as a specific formula workshop attendees can plug their information into in order to generate a great query letter.

Adria Goetz is a senior literary agent and illustration coordinator at KT Literary. She represents picture books, middle grade, graphic novels, and adult fiction. She was recently proud to represent the instant NYT and Indie Bestseller MILLIE FLEUR’S POISON GARDEN by Christy Mandin, as well as IN THE GROVES by Andrea Cruz Floren, and THE CRESCENT MOON TEAROOM by Stacy Sivinski. In her spare time she can be found rewatching Gilmore Girls for the millionth time, listening to Taylor Swift, and dreaming about the mossy stone cottage in the woods she would like to live in one day.
