can't anyone write a decent query letter these days? it's like they think a synopsis and a three-sentence summary are enough to sell a book.

haha yeah what even is a query letter anymore? are you suggesting people should just send in the whole manuscript and a note that says "pls buy my book?

omg yes, at this point just include a shrugging emoji and a vimeo link to your writing process montage, who needs a query letter anyway?
yeah, actually that's exactly what some agents and editors are saying now. query letters are super outdated and a barrier for many submitters.
