Query Cohort 2026 – Intensive

Want more individual support as you get ready to query?

The Query Cohort Intensive includes everything in the regular Query Cohort, along with additional one-on-one time and personalized feedback to help you feel confident about your work and your next steps.

You’ll get everything included in the regular Query Cohort and additional intensive querying resources:

• A 60-minute one-on-one session to talk through your book, query, and goals
• A detailed review of your query letter, synopsis, and opening pages
• Two rounds of personalized feedback, so you have a chance to revise and get feedback again
• Help thinking through which agents might be a good fit for your work and how to approach querying
• Two additional small-group office-hour sessions for questions, troubleshooting, and support
• A final conversation about your materials and next steps
• A small group follow-up session after the cohort to talk about how querying is going and what comes next
