| Top 10 Mistakes Authors Make That Can Be Avoided Easily (in no particular order) 1. Sending your entire manuscript instead of querying first. 2. Sending your query letter or other materials to agents who do not represent your particular genre. 3. Sending your query letter via email when the agent does not accept email queries. 4. Sending your query or other materials as an attachment to an email when the agent does not accept attachments. 5. Not including your full name or contact information on your query or other materials. 6. Abundant typos and errors that could have been avoided by spell-checking your query before you sent it. 7. Not following the Submission Guidelines that are listed on the agent's website. 8. Using bright, colorful, randomly-changing fonts or colored paper. 9. Sending an email query that contains a link to a webpage about your book and directing the agent to visit the website if he or she wants information about your manuscript. 10. Including in your query letter, proposal, or manuscript negative comments about yourself, your writing ability, your previous attempts at querying agents, or the manuscript itself. There are more errors that could be listed, but these are the most common mistakes we encounter that can be fixed easily.
