Tracking your queries
Every writer has a different way of keeping track of their article ideas, note, markets and queries. We will be covering various solutions over the coming weeks. Here is one simple five step plan for making sure that your query meets success.
- Open a new word document and type the title of your article. (What no title?)
- Now type your basic query. You might want to include some bullet points covering the main features of the article or ideas for sidebars, sources or quotes, so that you have all of the necessary elements at hand for each pitch. Working efficiently is the key to being a profitable writer.
- Research potential markets and make a list of each one.
