Traditional Publishing Bundle

Pitch your children's book to agents and publishers, with a query letter that actually gets read.

You've written a story you believe in, and you want it in real bookstores with a real publishing team behind it. But the smallest mistake (wrong word count, sloppy formatting, a query that buries the hook) can land your manuscript in the slush pile before anyone reads page one.

This bundle is your 8-step playbook for getting it right. Inside, you'll get the exact manuscript format agents and editors expect, a fillable query letter template in both Google Docs and Word, two real query examples to model from, and the 6 questions to ask when the call finally comes.

With the Bundle, You'll Know...

1. The full traditional publishing path, from polished manuscript to signed contract, so you know what to expect at every stage
2. How to format your manuscript the way agents and editors expect, before you hit submit
3. How to write a query letter with the 3 must-have sections, and the common mistakes that close doors
4. How to find the right agents and editors to pitch, and how to pitch them well
5. What to do when an offer comes in, including the 6 questions to ask before you sign anything

Who's this bundle for?

Writers with a polished manuscript who want a traditional publisher and are getting ready to send it out. If you're asking "How do I write a query letter?" and "Who do I even send this to?", this is for you.

It won't tell you whether your story is ready to send. If you're not sure it is, start with the Revise Your Children's Book Bundle.
