I'm actually home sick today, so right after work, I went straight to bed and just woke up now. Ack!<br /><br />As for your question, Michael, it's fine to leave out previous experience and publication if you're a first-time writer. Liza's website actually assures writers not to worry about that. In fact, she's launched new authors onto bestseller lists, so you can still definitely make a strong query letter without that paragraph on previous experience.<br /><br />Thanks again! And if there's any other questions, I'll just be in bed taking it easy, so I'll stop by again later :)Judehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08572550692282884568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1746050382328975047.post-26643196247923161502011-04-12T01:07:52.196-04:002011-04-12T01:07:52.196-04:00Wonderful interview, Natalie and Judith!
