Finding a nonfiction publisher can be tough. For me, it took six years of writing book proposals, querying literary agents, and pitching publishers until I finally got my first book published.

That said, if you break down the perfect nonfiction query letter into its component parts, you’ll be able to understand what works—and what doesn’t work—so you can write a great query letter quickly and easily. Why Write a Query Letter The purpose of a query letter is to get a  literary agent or editor at a publishing company to read your manuscript, review your book proposal, or read your submitted sample chapters. Different publishers have different submission guidelines.  Some require you write a full book proposal  while others only ask you only submit a few sample chapters, and still others may require you to submit your full and completed manuscript for review. But no matter what your addressee’s submission guidelines are, you’ll still need to write a great query letter to get them to open you
