| In this live webinar, Jaida Temperly will share first-hand knowledge of what she looks for in the opening pages of a query, what works and what doesn't, and what makes her request the full manuscript. She'll also discuss: how to create opening pages that keep readers turning the pages, what agents are looking for, common pitfalls to avoid, tricks to make your first pages shine, and what to do if you're still not getting any requests. |
