I’ve been trying to get away from writing Web content and into magazine/newspaper writing lately, and the query letter has been my toughest obstacle. I posted over at the AW forums and got some good critiques (and apparently, I didn’t do as bad as I thought) and send a few in…and I’ve heard nothing so far. Now I’m caught in the wondering if they’re busy or if my e-mail query is sitting in a spam folder along with Viagra ads and poorly-written headlines trap!

I’m guilty of writing boring queries. I never thought of actually making the letter a sample of your abilities.

I’m sold!
