Do you need help crafting an amazing query letter? Do you long to have the mysteries of querying unlocked for you? How would you like to have a professional critique your query until you get it right?
That's exactly what my two week online (do on your own time schedule!) query workshop offers. It's a $40 value, though my former clients tell me the results they get are priceless. See for yourself.
Now, for the first time ever, I'm going to give away one free query workshop registration. Already took the course? You can give it to a writer friend as a gift. Here's how to enter.

1 entry: Jane Darcy's life gets way more interesting on the day her eyes change color and she discovers she can move things with her mind. Oh, and the boy she loves? He can fly... without a plane. They have fun with their abilities--who wouldn't? It's like one, big, extraordinary game. But in this "game" everything comes at a cost, and the outcomes are deadly.
(Okay, I went like three sentences over the limit, so if you don't want to count that 1 entry I totally understand.)
my twitter is pizaseven, and I posted your link and explained you were offering a free workshop :)

MAKE ME HOWL
Born with the werewolf gene:
The good news, a biting sense of humor, a killer sense of style and control to keep from morphing during a full moon.
The bad news, losing control anytime--when angry, drunk or even making love--will cause an unexpected change to the wild life.
Hey, C.J. -

Here's my 2-3 line query pitch:
Saying that sixteen-year-old Cate Allyn is in shock is the understatement of any century. All in one night, her beloved Granny Maggie is expelled from the totalitarian government’s nursing home; her father is arrested for treason; and she meets Gyan, a time traveler who tells Cate that the dystopian world she lives in results from renegades altering history for unscrupulous gains. The task of going back in time to undo the damage falls to her.
Thanks!
What a great resource!
