Those lines aren't from my query, but the body of my query is the book description on my website: http://www.deegarretson.com/ I'm sure we will do posts on Project Mayhem on query writing. I actually don't mind them now.<br /><br />August 23, 2010 7:17 PMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-85062951317282400112010-08-23T21:02:47.710-05:002010-08-23T21:02:47.710-05:00Thanks for the wisdom and encouragement!
