    Some people seem to rush their query package which just seems crazy to me!

      I guess they just get excited and don't realise you only get one chance.

    I just randomly came across this video. Could someone fill me in on what a query package is?

      When you are trying to get a literary agent and then get traditionally published, you send an agent a sample of the book. This is called a query package. It's a letter with a few chapters from the start. If they like what they read, they ask for the whole book.
