I was lucky to be in Pitch Wars with a mentor and writing peers for querying+call help, and it was SO HELPFUL.

But not everyone has those connections, so instead of a “how I got my agent” post, I thought I’d share some things I knew, but didn’t KNOW about The Call. 1. The email for The Call really is pretty simple. One day you’re neck-deep in querying woes, trying to forget that last stinging rejection, and BAM. Your inbox pings. Someone loved your full, and they want to know if you have time in the next few days to talk.
