Title: Query Letters That Sell
Author: Mridu Khullar

My Rating: 5 out of 5

About five years ago I came across a site called WritersCrossing and the freelance writer who ran it Mridu Khullar. At the time she had an e-book called Query Letters That Will Knock Your Socks Off which she offered to writers like me who were just starting out in magazine writing. The letters and her advice were extremely helpful, as I have since sold my articles to several different magazines thanks to her.

Others have felt the same and have sent her comments like the following:

“Once again, I am completely blown away. Talent is one thing: people are born with it. Some use it, others don’t. Skill can be acquired with some determination. But the ability to apply seat of pants to seat of chair combined with both talent and skill (and a wicked sense of humor) is a rare thing. Thank you so much for your sparklin’ ebook. I’m loving it to bits. Knocked off? My socks are missing! Big thank you.” - Marie

If you would like to be able to write query letters that will get you the writing jobs you’re looking for, then visit the author at her new site where she is offering the query letters free for the asking. You will find Khullar very thorough with a dash of spice that she adds to her writing.
