Oh woah, I didn't realise Janet just died. That's incredibly sad news. I followed her blog for several years, entered her writing competitions, and had long chats with her via email about tadpoles. She was just always so generous with her time and advice. I'll miss her so much.

Thanks Susan. But with all due respect I wouldn't, as a writer, waste three minutes on the query letter. What self-respecting agent says, "the sample was gorgeous but the query needs tweaking, so hard pass."
