When you use our
e-mail submission service, the e-mail
goes out under your own name and
e-mail address, with a strong subject line
to attract interest. We'll provide you with some suggestions on what
to say, too. For example, a nonfiction book might be described
something like this:
T o:
June Williams
mailto:jwilliams@newyorkbooks.com
From: Dan
Jones mailto:danjones@yahoo.com
Subject: A New Book Featuring a Personal and Scientific Breakthrough in Gene Therapy
All you
need do is provide us with the content of the e-mail. You can start
with a short intro such as this, and then further describe your project and
yourself.
I would
like to submit "It's All in the Genes", a self-help guide to success based on a
revolutionary new therapy on changing your genes for better health and
success. It describes my
personal story in coming back from a near death experience and benefiting
from this breakthrough in science
You can write your own e-mail letter, though we recommend you follow
our
guidelines
for writing a short, effective letter.
Or use one of our tested
e-mail
templates
and fill in details about your project. We've already
used them in mailings with positive responses from many editors.
Once we receive your payment for our query service, we'll send you the address
to access these templates on our Web site. Or if you still need help,
use our writer query service.
Once your query is ready,
we’ll
e-mail your queries
to the
selected agents, editors, and/or syndicates seeking your type of book,
article, column, or screenplay.
We'll also send you a report which lists all of the companies and the names of
the contacts at these companies who have been sent your e-query.
