Re: Mass Email Query
I've had some luck finding a literary agent using the opposite of the mass email approach. I study successful writers and projects then work backward to find the agency that was involved in their success. I focus on artists and projects that are similar to mine. Once I pick out an agency, I study the individual agents and staff to see what they like and don't like. Once I have a specific agent picked out, I tailor a query specific to that person addressed directly to them. I only send out a couple of queries a week but I they are being sent to high quality agents.
