Today it's back to work here at the QQQE. Well, actually, today is the easy part, tomorrow is the work.
Anyway, today I'm featuring Tara Gallina's current query. If you don't know Tara, please go visit her blog, and become a follower.
Back? Great.
Now please keep in mind, today is just for introductions, and so you can have a chance to read the query without my redline. Please save your feedback for tomorrow.
Here we go:

That's it!
Please thank Tara for her courage, and say hello in the comments, but remember to save your critique for tomorrow.

I'm a new follower, Tara! Your story looks really cool. More tomorrow! (and hi, Matt!)
Tara, your story sounds awesome. Looking forward to Matt's critique tomorrow.
I'm a new follower also, and also think your story is awesome. Can't wait to see what you have to say Matt.
This is an interesting way to review query letters. I like it.
Eager to hear your thoughts tomorrow!
Interesting premise. I particularly intrigued by the mixture of mythology the writer mentions. Hmm... Can't wait to see the comments tomorrow!
Sounds like a great story. I'm looking forward to reading query comments tomorrow.
Interesting. Anxious to see the comments.
i already know what i want to say. But i bet Matt covers it all tomorrow. He's sneaky like that ;)
Looking forward to tomorrow's breakdown of what works and what doesn't.
Thanks for sharing Tara. Sounds like a good one for tomorrow then.
Very nice! I can't wait to read your thoughts on it, Matt. :)
The story really does sound interesting. At the end, where you compare it to 2 other writer's works, I believe you have the wrong author's name for the Firelight series. Sophie Jordan wrote the Firelight series. I looked to see if there was another Firelight book written by a Sophia Taylor, but did not find anything. I look forward to reading Matt's suggestions!
OOoooh love this one! So interesting!!
And you know I'm not usually gushy.
Intriguing.
Interesting--and I'm a new follower of Tara's. I'll be back tomorrow to check out Matt's critique.
Hello Tara! I appreciate you opening your query up to us. One day, I hope to be brave like you :-)
It will be interesting to read your take on this.
Went and followed. :)
I'm lame at critiquing queries. I'll have to come back for Matthew's excellent advice. See you tomorrow!
Interested to know what you're going to write tomorrow.
Yvonne.
Gutsy--putting your query out there, Tara. I'm gathering guts to get my query written. I'll return tomorrow to read and learn.
I really like the premise. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts tomorrow!
Sounds like a great story! Looking forward to reading the comments tomorrow. Tara you're so brave!
Hello Tara. Nice meeting you.
Sounds like a great concept...I am a total sucker for mythology-charged storylines!
