  • @emmaward174
    @emmaward174 18 днів тому

    This was a great video! I just wanted to say that you should absolutely feel confident in compare your works to other books, even if they're super popular. Publishers and agents want to see that confidence from you and they LOVE having a starting point of reference for comparison. Query letters that fall flat are the ones that say their books aren't like anything else. That's not actually great, because often readers want books that are similar to things they've already read. After all, when you look for new book recs as a reader, you start by telling people which books / authors you've previously enjoyed. It's been a couple of years since I worked in publishing and read query letters for my day job, but this is all still true today. Hope it helps! <3
