If writing a novel isn’t hard enough, try consolidating all the pages into one page. It’s called a query. It’s how a writer convinces an agent to represent the work. In two-hundred words or less, explain the essence of a story in a way that makes a publishing professional want to read more. Nevermind that the average literary agent receives a gadzillion email queries a month. Nevermind that a writer has one chance to get it right with that agent. Nevermind that the delete key is located perilously close to the agent’s pinky finger.

Uh! The agony. How on EARTH am I supposed to put all of this story into one teeny tiny little logline?
I love how organized your work space is. Organization helps me think and process much better. I can’t wait to get to the querying stage again.

Loglines are hard! Thanks, I’m not always this organized, though.
