After my tweet about #Query Letters I received many DMs. Is shocking how many #screenwriters dont know how or havent tried to query.
So it's 🧵 time!
Disclaimer: Theres no ONE right way to query! These are just MY tips/advice as someone who's read thousands & written hundreds... Let's start w/ the Subject Heading in ur email.
1. If u have a referral or personal contact, use that - "Thriller Writer Referred by __"
2. Use big award-placement. "2022 Nicholl Semifinal Script"
3. Or just a title works (have a intriguing/clever title!)
4. Never say QUERY.
