Query Letter Contender Looks Promising

The diligent work for a compelling query letter continues. I have created multiple drafts submitted to published friends for their feedback and I think I FINALLY have a strong contender. I’m happy with it. I just sent out my first query letter email to a literary agent who was referred to me by one of my friend who works for a PR company. Fingers crossed everyone who’s rooting for me. The Extra Innings Trilogy is about to make its mark not he world. Thank you for all those who’ve sent me emails of how they enjoyed book 1 (The Diamond Thieves). Hopefully I can find the right agent who believes in this trilogy and its characters as much as I do.
