worst book proposals and query letters
Hi, Angie.
This one really got me:
“I seek publisher for the attached article expressing possible disadvantages of the theory or concept of feminism.”
On top of everything else, does he not realize that you, a female business person, are the publisher? The sheer lunacy of these things is jaw-dropping. Just when I think I’ve seen it all or heard it all, I find out the abyss goes even deeper.
Keep ’em coming.
Regards,
Marsha

Thanks for once again publishing your “world’s worst queries and book proposals.” It’s hard to believe that people are really that stupid. But…I guess truth IS stranger than fiction.
