Query letters are harder than writing a novel. It seems every writer's website and book has the exact format that one needs to get the query letter read and enough interest raised to have the agent or publisher request the synopsis and 3 chapters. The only problem -- each source is tells the writer different things so that the writer end up more confused on how to write the query letter than enlightened.

With that said, I sent off a new version over the weekend. We'll just have to see how it goes. Of course I won't know, according to the agent's site, for another 2 - 3 months. So, I'll just keep using the new letter as I scout out agents that handle similar works.

God, this is fun.
