Great practical advice for query-writing

I know this show hasn’t been updated in a while, and I’m not sure if there’s another season coming... but I just wanted to say how thankful I am for this show! I binge-listened to almost all the episodes while I was preparing to query agents last year, and it was so helpful to hear concrete examples and advice. I’d recommend this show to any writer preparing to pitch their manuscript. Would love to see more episodes in the future if possible!
So helpful!

I love this podcast so much! Not only are the weekly episodes enjoyable and easy to follow, but the bonus episodes are fantastic! Even as an agented author with a book coming out later this year, I find that I learn something new in every episode. Pitching your book is important and tricky, and this podcast makes it seem accessible to even the newest writer.
Great podcast, insightful reviews

I've just started listening to Blair's show, and I probably have 1 more episode left before digging into the Patreon bonuses. Even though most of the queries are neither my manuscript's genre or age category, the mistakes or improvements to be made in describing the plot, clearly identifying the stakes, and character descriptions are universal. Writing is writing, and the way in which we express our story's details isn't entirely depending on the book's meta info. I really enjoy Blair's thoughtful approach to providing suggestions of how to improve. You would do well to listen in!
