Re: Query: The Soul Baby the Trickster and the Golden Buddha
It's been over a week and nobody's touched this. I'm going with it. Thanks for all the help with previous revisions. Just so you know (in case anyone is interested), I am in discussion with an agent who asked for, and has read and likes the manuscript. Also, got this lovely letter from another agent...

Re: Query: Nirvana: Absolute Freedom: Spiritual Non-fiction
Going crazy with queries here. I'm still trying to get the hang of it. It happens that I have experience and some degree of expertise in your subject matter, for better or worse. Firs of all, to be redundant again, this looks like a straight nonfiction title that should be pitched with a proposal ra...

Re: RESCUE MY SOUL - YA Gritty Novel
I liked this bit, "Janet understood why Jude couldn't stand up to his tormentor in 10th grade, and Jude understood why Janet was still pining over the jerk who cheated on her in 11th." It is personal, shows caring and compassion and depth of understanding of eachothers weaknesses, sets up ...

When Michael Roland positions the Brazilian amethyst on his forehead, he has no idea that a secret door to the spirit world is about to be blown wide open.

Re: The Drunkard's Daughter: Started from Scratch, see p. 2
Dara McBride has always relegated the subject of her adoptive granddaughter’s birth mother to the realm of Great Unmentionables, along with the true nature of Annie’s I think I need to know who Annie is before I can get concerned about the true nature of her relationship to another person (who I als...

Re: Query: The Soul Baby the Trickster and the Golden Buddha
HI Again, sgf, Quill, airball, andriodblues, Layla, clara, elfspirit I'd really like to thank you all for your effort and your kindness.

Should the query be from the same point of view and tense?
Hi Nathan,
Thanks for your great site, by the way.
Should the query be written from the same point of view and tense as the book?
(In case it's different for different situations, mine is first person present)
Thanks!
