A Query Letter That Worked by Carrie Vaughn, author of werewolf radio talk show novel Kitty and the Midnight Hour and others

What I like about this post is it showcases an actual query letter and breaks down the moving parts, explaining the rationale and why such a simple piece is all that's necessary. Not that I'm anywhere close, but this seems like good advice.

(On a side note, I've heard of the Kitty Norville books and am mightily intrigued. Has anyone read them?)
